Register Your Thesis in DiVA

In General

DiVA, Academic Archive Online, is Uppsala University’s platform for digital publishing and registration of publications and research data produced by researchers, teachers and students.

As from spring 2018 all succesfully defended (C and M) theses should be registered in (and uploaded to) DiVA for archiving and, if wanted by the student, publishing. The students register their theses themselves in DiVA. The registration (and uploading) of the thesis is a precondition for receiving a final grade for the thesis.

Standardly the thesis is registered after the defence in order to make it possible for the student to make minor changes and corrections, if needed, before registration.

Theses registered in DiVA are automatically archived and by default published. Publishing the thesis means that the thesis is publicly available in DiVA. The student has the possibility not to publish the thesis. To avoid publishing, the option "Only for archiving" should be checked when registering the thesis. The archivation in DiVA is however mandatory.
