The Office of Graduate Studies publishes thesis manual updates from
time to time to provide certain uniform standards regarding style and
format of theses, dissertations and records of study. Accordingly, all
efforts are taken by EE dept. to update the thesis document
class package to meet the new requirements. Some of these changes are
described below:
- The type of degree and the major subject are now on
the Approval page. Ph.D. students need to define their degree type by
inserting
\renewcommand{\degree}{DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY} in
the preamble of their thesis.tex files. For students who are in a
department other than Electrical Engineering, you need to define the
major subject by inserting
\renewcommand{\major}{DEPARTMENT NAME}. For
more details, please see the sample thesis in
Appendix [*].
- In the table of contents, REFERENCES, APPENDICES, and VITA have been moved
to the left to be aligned with the CHAPTER column.
- On the Acknowledgment page, the vertical space
between ``ACKNOWLEDGMENT''
and the first paragraph has been doubled.
- The horizontal line that separates the text and the selected journal model
sentence at the bottom of page one of the thesis has been shortened to
ten spaces in length.
