Completing a dissertation in History at the University of Georgia is a
requirement for completing the Ph.D. degree,
but it is also a declaration of mastery of the research and writing skills
required to be a professional historian.
Students who complete dissertations in History at UGA have, in effect,
written a "first draft" of a publishable
scholarly book, and qualify themselves for faculty positions in post-secondary education.
All dissertations demonstrate creativity and insight on the part of the author,
while also contributing important knowledge to historical understanding.
Some examples of in-progress dissertations and completed dissertations (scroll down to view)
by UGA doctoral students are listed below, demonstrating the
diversity and strength of the program's research interests and contributions.
