Abstract: The abstract should contain a brief introduction of background or importance of the topic. It should also include a brief discussion of the methods and procedures in gathering data with a condensed summary of the findings and conclude with a summary of the conclusions reached in the study. Literature Review: A literature review should be included at the beginning of the thesis/dissertation text and include a survey of scholarly articles, books and other sources (e.g. dissertations, conference proceedings) relevant to the particular issue, area of research, or theory, providing a description, summary, and critical evaluation of each work. The purpose of the literature review is to offer an overview of significant literature published on the topic and to provide a foundation for the research in your thesis/dissertation. References: All of the works cited in the thesis/dissertation should be included in the references section at the end of the thesis/dissertation. Follow the style guide appropriate. Style Guides: Different citation styles are appropriate to different academic disciplines. However, I want MLA Style ManualFonts/Spacing/Size: The manuscript and the abstract must be double-spaced except for footnotes or long quotations (as defined by the style guide). Any legible fonts, except script, italic, or ornamental fonts, that are equivalent in scale to 10pt. Arial or 12pt. Times New Roman are acceptable. Italicized fonts may be used for non-English words and quotations. Size applies to all text including captions, footnotes/endnotes, citations, etc. Embedded fonts are REQUIRED in the final copy that will be submitted for online publication. Follow the instructions for your word processing software to embed fonts prior to converting the final approved thesis or dissertation to PDF. Margins: The thesis or dissertation must have a margin of one inch (1”) on all four (4) sides of the page–left, right, top, and bottom. This requirement applies to all material except page numbers, including figures, headers/footers, footnotes/ endnotes, and full-page images. Page numbers must be at least 3⁄4” from edge of page. Pages should be planned to maintain the required margins. If charts, graphs, or illustrative materials are too large to fit within the required margins, photo reduction may be used. No letter or symbol should be less than 2 mm in size. Pagination: For the introductory pages, the numbering begins with ii, the title page counts as ‘i’, but the number does not appear. For the body of the thesis/dissertation including text, illustrations, appendices, and bibliography, use Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3, etc.). The numbering begins with one (1) and runs consecutively to the end of the manuscript. Do not use suffixes to the Arabic numerals, such as 12a. If the description of an illustration or table is too long to be placed on the same page, it should be placed on the previous page and numbered accordingly. Pages containing charts, graphs, tables, or photographs must be numbered consecutively with the text. Use only one side of each page. No facing pages are permitted in theses or dissertations, either in the text or in charts, photographs, or other non-text contents. With the exception of the title page, each page in the manuscript, including all blank pages must include a number. Each page must be numbered within the margins as follows: • Title Page: unnumbered • Signature Page: ii • Acknowledgements page: iii • Abstract: iv (or iii if no acknowledgments page) • Contents or Table of Contents: v • List of Illustrations : vii • List of Tables and or List of Figures (if applicable): viii • Body of Thesis/Dissertation (text): begin with unnumbered page 1 (number all following pages using Arabic numerals) • References: follow the sequential page numbering of the text • Appendix or Appendices (if applicable): follow the sequential page numbering of the text Charts, Graphs, Tables, Illustrations, and Photographs.All charts, graphs, photographs, and tables must conform to the margins, font, size, and pagination rules as stated.
