Requirements
You'll need access to Microsoft Word (essential)
I'm assuming you already know how to open new documents & save them in word, and perform basics like copying and pasting text
To use the same method of inserting references, you'll need Zotero (it's free)
It will help if you can find the formatting guidelines from your university before you start formatting your own thesis, but this is not essential before taking the course
Description
When your examiner first looks at your thesis, the very first thing they'll notice, before they start reading will be the formatting. If it looks good; if it looks clean and consistent; if it looks professional and well-proportioned, then it will create an instant good impression.And it's not just about aesthetics: Good formatting also improves readability, which in turn improves the examiner's experience (especially when it's a long document).But there are two major problems to overcome:First, the default settings in Word look dated and amateur. And second, Word often seems to have a mind of its own, changing settings and moving things when you don't want it to. This is in part because there are several different ways to achieve the same visual result and the document will behave differently depending on the steps you've taken previously. This can be absolutely infuriating, especially when you're under pressure to finish your thesis.Your time and effort should be spent on writing, not fighting with Word. In this course, you'll learn how to quickly format your thesis following the same principles and attention to detail used by professional typesetters. You'll also learn step-by-step processes to get Word to do what you want it to, without the usual frustration.The settings demonstrated in this course will result in a professional-looking document that will meet most university guidelines, and are chosen to work well for all formats (it will look good on screen as well as printed single or double sided).All the steps have been tested on both Windows and Mac. They are mostly the same, with any small differences highlighted throughout the course.
Who this course is for
This course is designed for PhD and Masters students who want to submit a sleek, professional-looking thesis.
