Hi all,
US researcher Barry Greenwood, has kindly been sending me copies of academic theses dealing with the subject of UAP.
Italian researcher, Paolo Toselli, in 2012, compiled a 231 item data base titled "University UFO Theses & Dissertations, 1950-2012."
I thought I would take a look at how many theses, partly or wholly, have been undertaken in Australia, on this subject. My research ended up with a total of eight. Naturally, I would be pleased to hear details of any others.

In case anyone is interested, I recently published my book on UFOs and alien abductions. I tackle these issues using a socio-skeptical approach.
