We offer a thesis printing and binding service for both temporary and permanent bound theses.
PhD, master's and other doctoral theses
For theses that are administrated by the Graduate Research School (GRS) - you should consult the GRS process for submission of your thesis. Do not submit them directly to UniPrint.
After completion, we can print copies of your thesis for personal use or for requirements of your school.
Honours and master's by coursework theses
For courses administrated by a school - please contact the relevant school office to discuss the submission process prior to submitting to UniPrint for printing and binding. We can print additional copies for your private use.
Thesis binding
Permanently bound
Theses that need to be printed and permanently bound should follow the specifications and format outlined in the thesis printing guide. The traditional style is a case bound book with gold foil text on a buckrum (or equivalent) binding cloth.

You can also request a soft bound version for your private copies. These are Perfect Bound with an printed and laminated card cover.
Temporary binding
Temporary binding is typically spiral bound with a front cover of clear plastic and back cover of black card. As part of the examination process you may be asked to provide a printed and temporary bound thesis.
Process
You can upload your files and create your cover page for printing and binding via Uniprint Online Ordering.
If you need assistance you are welcome to visit the Campus Shop where one of our staff can assist you.
Costs and payment
The Uniprint Online Ordering platform will calculate the cost of your printing and binding job.
You can pay via credit card online or with prior approval from your school, the costs can be charged to school directly.
If you wish to have the school pay for it, you need to ask them for a BU (Business Unit) and PG (Project Grant) Number, and the name and contact details of the accounts contact. We must have the costs approved by the school before we can begin production.
