We allow temporary embargoes, but not permanent or long term ones. If a graduate student will be conducting the research on proprietary information, that graduate student should not use this work as the basis for her or his thesis/dissertation. The Graduate College approves embargoes on theses and dissertations only when they are highly justified and unavoidable. In this case, the student can carry out the research described in the proposal to fulfill expectations associated with a research assistantship. The student’s thesis/dissertation scholarship should be on a different (though potentially related) topic that is not bound by the publication restriction.
