This series contains graduate theses and senior papers written by students as part of degree requirements.
The material is listed in alphabetical order by the author's last name. Theses in boxes 3, 4, 5, 6 and 34 are bound together by year.
These theses and papers originated with the Department of Textiles, the Department of Industrial Management, and the College of Industrial Management and Textile Science. They were received from the Sirrine Library when it disbanded in 1990. The theses were accessioned as 90-107.
Student assistant Hope Brown arranged and processed the series. The finding aid was completed in October 2004.
The conversion of this finding aid to Encoded Archival Description format was made possible with a grant from the South Carolina State Historical Records Advisory Board in 2009-2010. The finding aid was prepared for encoding by Carl Redd.
Jen Bingham updated the list and added the theses in boxes 3 and 4 in May 2011.
