I have set up a new page listing my undergraduate students who have successfully converted their graduation theses into published articles. The theses were excellent to begin with, but have subsequently gone through a refereeing process to be accepted as publishable research. There are two main aims for me of this new project:
1) I hope this inspires all my students to do their very best, and gives them additional motivation to produce a top quality graduation thesis.
2) Not all people producing excellent research choose to stay in academia. Much excellent research gets “lost” because people leave to pursue other paths in life. This way, thesis research that will benefit the broader academic community can still be part of the academic literature.
