The annual list of thesis titles is compiled by the Secretary-General’s office by the Administrator of the Royal Economic Society. All UK Universities are invited each year to publish in this list. It contains the titles for theses for higher degrees taken entirely by dissertation and it relates to degrees awarded in the academic years 2008/9 and early 2009/10. The subject classification is that used by the Economic Journal and is derived from the classification devised by the American Economic Association and used in the Journal of Economic Literature since March 1991. (It will be appreciated that assigning some titles to a single category is somewhat arbitrary.)

In 2010 the Society decided that the annual list of thesis titles awarded in the previous academic year should in future be published on the RES website, www.res.org.uk rather than in the June issue of the Economic Journal as has previously been the case. Other lists of thesis titles have previously appeared in the March issue of the Economic Journal, beginning in 1973 and from 1991, the May issue and in 2000 in the June issue.

The availability of theses is indicated as follows:
(i) Abstract available through inter-library loan
(ii) Abstract available from university library
(iii) Thesis available through inter-library loan
(iv) Copy of thesis available from university library
(v) Thesis available at university library for consultation only
(vi) Thesis not available until after publication
(vii) Micro-film copy of thesis available from British Library (Document Supply Centre, Boston Spa)
