    Dissertations and Theses Year-in-Review, 2023-24

    Today is Commencement Day for the Graduate Center, which means it’s time for the Library’s celebration of all of the dissertations, theses, and capstone projects that were deposited this academic year. Our concern, of course, is with preserving and making accessible the original research contributions that our students have created in their academic pursuits. The creation of new knowledge, whether through advancements in science or new explorations of the human condition, is the bedrock of graduate study and these culminating works represent an enormous achievement. The Graduate Center sits at the crossroads of CUNY’s research enterprise and our students—today’s graduates—are at the forefront of initiatives that re-energize our studies, revolutionize our methods, and sustain our communities.
