Dissertation Repo?

Hi all,

I’m an academic psychologist and this year, for the first time in a decade of supervision, I had an undergrad do a dissertation (~7000 words) using an ABM methodology. The dissertation itself is pretty fine (still marking it), and the model - which I put together for the student - is also fine (not amazing, but fit for purpose).

I was wondering if there’s a repository where fellow academics/supervisors can upload models and corresponding dissertations so as to make a) the student experience of doing an ABM diss clearer, and b) allow supervisors to shop among established models and topics.

Cheers!

That’s cool, thanks. A quick skim suggests it’s primarily (exclusively?) for peer-reviewed models? I’ll definitely dive deeper this afternoon.

The NetLogo team is currently in the process or remaking the Modeling Commons. Keep an eye out for the new one in the next few months (we’ll announce it on the forum). We intend it to be a good platform for exactly the kind of thing you are talking about (among other uses).
