As a resource for graduate students, sample Word templates are available to assist with the initial formatting of doctoral dissertations and master's theses. Students are expected to fully format their dissertation/thesis according to the "Preparation and Submission Manual for Doctoral Dissertations and Master's Theses".
The below templates are in Word. If you prefer to use LaTeX, here is a recommended unofficial template. We are not able to provide technical support for LaTeX.
Note: opening the Word template in Google Docs may cause auto-formatting features to be lost or auto-formatting features may appear differently.
A sample template of a co-author permission letter and cover letter from the committee chair can be found here. For complete information on submission of permission letters, please see this page and/or refer to the full Manual.
