Omar, Mathias (University of Pretoria, 10-Oct) Strong defines the term “constitution” as a framework according to which a political society is structured, where permanent institutions with specific and pre-determined functions and rights are created, through law.
The University of Pretoria supports free access to research literature for all researchers worldwide and takes responsibility for the dissemination of its own research outputs. Because theses and dissertations are not formally published it is even more important that the University itself should provide access to them.
Thesis/Dissertation Visibility and Impact. All Masters and Doctoral Students completing a thesis are encouraged to c reate a researcher profile account on ORCID, Google Scholar, and the academic social networking platforms listed in step 4. After completing STEP 3 on how to submit your thesis/dissertation on UPSpace, proceed to STEP 4.
