South African Theses and Dissertations

The National ETD Portal South Africa: South African Theses and Dissertations

http://www.netd.ac.za/

is run by the South African National Research Foundation (NRF) in collaboration with the Committee of Higher Education Librarians of South Africa (CHELSA).

The database provides access to abstracts of and the full text of many thousands of doctoral PhD and some other (e.g. MA) dissertations produced in South African universities. These cover the full range of science, social science and humanities topics. There is some coverage from as early as the 1970s although there are larger numbers of post 2009 records. Search  is by keyword or browsing title, institution or year.
Access to the full text is through clicking on the Identifier in the Abstract record
