How to Cite a Thesis or Dissertation in MLA
Citing a thesis or dissertation.
Thesis – A document submitted to earn a degree at a university.
Dissertation – A document submitted to earn an advanced degree, such as a doctorate, at a university.
The formatting for thesis and dissertation citations is largely the same. However, you should be sure to include the type of degree after the publication year as supplemental information. For instance, state if the source you are citing is an undergraduate thesis or a PhD dissertation.

Where are the cicadas? Use this interactive map to find Brood XIX, Brood XIII in 2024
In a few weeks, over a dozen states will be abuzz as trillions of periodical cicadas will emerge from their yearslong underground stay.
Broods XIX and XIII will emerge in a combined 17 states, mostly in the Midwest and Southeast, in a rare, double brood event . These two broods last emerged together 221 years ago, and after this year are not predicted to do so again until 2245.
Once conditions are right, the two broods will emerge in massive numbers to feed, make noise, mate and die. Here's what to know about where to find the 13-year Brood XIX and the 17-year Brood XIII.
2024 double cicada broods: Check out where Broods XIII, XIX will emerge
The two cicada broods will emerge in a combined 17 states across the Southeast and Midwest, with an overlap in parts of Illinois and Iowa. They will emerge once soil eight inches underground reaches 64 degrees, expected to begin in mid-May and lasting through late June.
The two broods last emerged together in 1803 , when Thomas Jefferson was president.
What is a periodical cicada?
Both the 13-year Brood XIX and the 17-year Brood XIII are periodical cicadas, which emerge every 13 or 17 years across North America. They differ from annual cicadas, which emerge every year.
You may remember the last periodical brood to emerge in huge numbers: the 17-year Brood X that was found in 2021 throughout the Midwest and Eastern Seaboard.
Annual cicadas, which are dark green to black with green wing veins, are typically larger than periodical cicadas , which are recognizable for their red eyes, red legs and red wing veins, according to North Carolina State University Extension.
Periodical cicadas emerge earlier, usually in mid-to-late May as opposed to annual cicadas in July and August. According to North Carolina State University Extension, annual cicadas begin mating, " singing conspicuously " and lying eggs about two weeks after they emerge. Their first nymphs will fall to the ground and begin feeding on roots under the soil, and fully-developed nymphs will emerge two years later and molt into adults.
Above ground, periodical cicadas have a similar life cycle, appear in much larger numbers and are much louder. At the end of their season, the next generation of nymphs move underground and remain for either 13 or 17 years.
Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce Were 'Affectionate All Night' at Patrick Mahomes' Las Vegas Event, Eyewitness Says
The pair attended Patrick Mahomes' 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Gala.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are not hiding their love!
An eyewitness inside Patrick Mahomes ' 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Gala on Saturday night tells ET that The Tortured Poets Department singer and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, both 34, were packing on the PDA.
According to the eyewitness Taylor and Travis "walked in holding hands and were affectionate all night" while supporting Mahomes' charity initiative in Las Vegas, Nevada. The eventgoer adds that throughout the night, there was "lots of kissing and just overall happiness between them. The support is there for one another."
"The two seem to be in good spirits and definitely in love," said the eyewitness.
ET also spoke with gala attendee Meghan Dunham who was lucky enough to snap a pic with Taylor inside. She shared her firsthand interaction with the "Karma" singer and three-time Super Bowl champ, who she called "amazing humans."
"Travis is incredibly attentive and loving to Taylor! It's very sweet and nothing but love between the two of them," she shared, calling their relationship "genuine and authentic."
According to Meghan, Taylor was "an absolute gem" and more than happy to take a photo with her. She called the 14-time GRAMMY winner "gracious and sweet," noting, "She truly is a beautiful soul inside and out."
The insider updates come just hours after Mahomes, 28, posted a weekend recap to his Instagram and snuck in a quick shot of Taylor in a floor-length green gown, hand-in-hand with Travis , who was dressed in a blue suit and white button-up shirt. The pair can be seen entering the venue looking ready to party and dressed to the nines.
"Great weekend in Las Vegas for the @15andMahomies Vegas Golf Classic," the Chiefs quarterback captioned the post.
Fans were quick to also point out another snippet in the video which showed Travis on the green during the golfing tournament and a blurry figure in the background who is wearing a light blue dress. The eagle-eyed Swifties noticed that all signs appeared to point to the mystery person being Taylor, cheering on her man from the sidelines.
"Hate to be insane in this way but we do have proof of Taylor cheering on Travis at the golf course," one person wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
During the gala, Travis surprised audience members in a last-minute shakeup when he took the stage to adorably raffle off one more item and shout out Taylor who helped pull off one of the hottest ticket items on the docket.
"I was just talking to my significant other and we might have another auction item that wasn't on the docket," he said slyly. "Has anybody heard of the Eras Tour?"
For the charity, Taylor and Travis pulled together four tickets to a future concert -- either in Miami Gardens, Florida, New Orleans, Louisiana, or Indianapolis, Indiana.
According to the event's auctioneer, Harry Santa, the four tickets did more than their fair share of heavy lifting to support the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation -- an organization devoted to bettering the lives of children through health and wellness programs.
"It's not every night @taylorswift is in your audience," Santa wrote on Instagram . "Four tickets to The Eras Tour raised an incredible $80,000... It was a truly special night supporting @15andmahomies."
