About

The hope is that this example thesis saves you time that I and countless others before me spent on the minutiae of writing a thesis in LaTeX. It combines a slightly modified version (more on this below) of the existing Stanford thesis style (more Stanford information here) with a template for including figures, tables, inline references, equations, symbols, a bibliography, a signature page, etc... I used this style as the basis for my (officially completed) thesis and thus believe it adheres to Stanford's policies, but I make no guarantees.

This thesis defaults to electronic submission using \onlinetrue in suthesis-2e.sty. Correspondingly, the copyright and signature pages ii and iii, respectively, are excluded as they are added by the Library upon submission. The last page of this example thesis is a signature page you can print, but remember to comment out \onlinesignature in main.tex before uploading your final version. Remember to print the signature page on acid-free paper. Likewise for the title page.

Structure

This template adopts a modular structure where each chapter is a separate .tex file that is included by main.tex. Figures are similarly organized by publication or project. Citing references requires a bibliography in BibTeX format, which can be generated by exporting an existing collection from a reference manager such as Mendeley, F1000, etc...

Usage

1. Install LaTeX on your system, use a Docker image, or use an online service like Overleaf. I used Overleaf because compilation is fast and simple.
2. Clone / download this repository, and if you are using an online service, upload the files.
3. Read main.tex and update it with your information. Add your bibliography, figures, and chapter text. There should be no need to further modify the Stanford style file suthesis-2e.sty.
4. Finish and submit thesis.
