We highly recommend utilizing a thesis template at the outset of your writing process.
These templates are designed to adhere to the established Thesis Formatting Guidelines. They provide pre-formatted elements including margins, line spacing, page numbering, front matter (placeholders for bracketed and italicized text can be easily replaced with your own information), chapter and section headings, and consistent heading and subheading styles.
The templates are intended for use regardless of your chosen referencing style (APA, MLA, IEEE, etc.). For aspects not explicitly addressed in the template, such as table formatting, reference lists, and in-text citations, please refer to the specific guidelines for your chosen referencing style.
For students working on dissertations in collaboration with another academic institution, please contact lib-thesis@aub.edu.lb to inquire about the PhD Cotutelle Template.
If you prefer to write your thesis or dissertation using LaTeX rather than Word, we recommend utilizing the THESIS/DISSERTATION LaTex Template available on Overleaf.
For guidance on LaTeX formatting, please refer to the Overleaf Pro+ guide
