Thesis/Degree project submission

Via this webpage, you can submit the final version of your degree project when it has received a passing grade. You can also find information about plagiarism checks and about digital publishing of your degree project.

When the degree project is completed (after the final seminar and after any supplements have been submitted) it must be submitted via Selfservice. Click on the link below. In Selfservice, select the Projects Administration tab. The upload process takes place as follows:

The administrative staff receives an archive copy of the degree project.
You are given the opportunity to accept or decline publishing of the degree project in full text digitally through DiVA.

Plagiarism checks are carried out (unless this check has been carried out earlier in the process).

Information about degree projects

NOTE! The Swedish School of Library and Information Science does not use a thesis number, so enter an X in the field where this is to be filled in.

Urkund (Ouriginal) is a tool that looks for similar or identical texts on the Internet and in databases. When a degree project is sent through the tool, it is stored in Urkund's (Ouriginal) database in order for it to be searchable when other works are analysed.

For some courses, plagiarism control has been carried out earlier in the process and is not done via the upload function (see info for each course in Canvas). This applies to the following areas:

Work Life Science
Library and Information Science
Information Management
Information Architecture
Public Administration
Pedagogy
Healthcare

When a degree project is published in DiVA it receives a unique link and within a few days becomes automatically searchable in Google, in the national essay database Uppsök and in Uppsatser.se. In order to publish a work, all authors' approval is needed and everyone must therefore tick their YES in connection with the submission. A YES means that you approve the publishing agreement between the University of Borås and you as an author.

Read the agreement here (PDF)

In connection with your acceptance of the agreement on publication, the university will process your personal data. You can read more about what this means on HB's privacy policy webpage

If you have questions about publication in DiVA, please contact the degree project administrator for each area of education (see above).

NB! Don't forget to apply for your Degree Certification.
