Accompanying Materials

This is the term given to materials which are part of the thesis but which are not included in the text (e.g. CD, DVD, CD-ROM).

Submitting CDs and DVDs

When the thesis consists only of an audio or video recording, such as a musical recital, film or play, you must submit the following to the Faculty of Graduate Studies:

  • one high-quality copy of the CD or DVD
  • paper copy of the title page
  • signed paper copy of the Dissertation or Thesis Approval form with original signatures
  • signed paper copies of all applicable forms
  • paper copy of the abstract
  • one copy of the performance programme (for audio or video performances)

Labelling CDs and DVDs

Each item submitted must be in its own case and must be labelled as follows:

On the case: a 1” X 3” label containing the following information:

  • student's last name, first name
  • degree to be awarded (e.g. MA, PhD)
  • date of graduation ceremony (e.g. Spring 2009, Fall 2009)
  • label each set of materials with the copy number and number of copies e.g. 1 of 2, 2 of 2. Example: if your accompanying materials are contained on two CDs, they must be labelled 1 of 2 and 2 of 2
  • thesis title

On discs in permanent marker:

  • student's last name, first name
  • degree to be awarded (e.g. MA, PhD)
  • date of graduation ceremony (e.g. Spring 2009, Fall 2009)
  • label each set of materials with the copy number and number of copies e.g. 1 of 2, 2 of 2. Example: if your accompanying materials are contained on two CDs, they must be labelled 1 of 2 and 2 of 2
  • thesis title

Please do not stick any labels directly onto the discs. We will not be able to accept them.

UBC Bioenergy Research and Demonstration Project

This project is the first combined heat and biomass system in North America. It will generate both heat and clean electricity through biomass gasification. For the UBC campus, the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions will be equivalent to taking 1100 cars off the road.
