Guidelines for editing research theses
IPEd has launched the revised and updated edition of 'The editing of research theses by professional editors'. The guidelines were developed in 2001 by the Deans and Directors of Graduate Studies (DDOGS) and IPEd's predecessor, the Council of Australian Societies of Editors (CASE).
The revision takes account of the changing environment in which many editors, students and their supervisors work. Changes include the reference to electronic editing, a clearer articulation of the editor's role, and the linking of editing functions and responsibilities to the Australian Standards for Editing Practice.
To download the updated standard, visit the Guidelines page on the IPEd website.
