Thesis Format Office

The College of Education Thesis Format Office exists to aid our Masters and Doctoral students in the formatting of their manuscripts for degree completion. They follow Graduate College as well as College of Education format guidelines to help make your manuscript as polished and professional as possible. This process can begin as soon as students have completed the first few chapters of the manuscript. Document review by the Thesis Format Office is required by College of Education and Graduate College policies.
