Thesis/Dissertation Formatting Guidelines and Forms

Formatting Instructions and Forms:

Congratulations! Now that you have successfully defended your thesis/dissertation, the formatting of your document is the final step prior to submission of your thesis/dissertation to the Graduate College (MS and PhD students)/School of Public Health (DrPh students). Instructions and forms for the process of submission of your document for each degree are listed below.

In addition, the Dean's Office provides seminars (once in the Fall and Spring semesters) on how to reduce formatting errors in your thesis/dissertation. Attached is the presentation that was presented this semester along with a table of contents template that you can easily format your table of contents.
