/dissertation/thesis must be typed in italics. For mathematical texts, the use of Equation Editor
or LaTeX is advisable. Script fonts are not permitted.

Chapter titles should be typed with capital letters and centered between the left and right
margins. Each chapter must begin on a new page. Chapters and subchapters should be also
titled. Titles should be typed in bold without underline.

A high-quality laser or ink-jet printer should be used for the printing.

3.3 Line Spacing
The body of the text should be typed with double spacing. Single-spacing is only permitted in
tables, long quotations, footnotes, citation and in the references.

The first sentence of a new paragraph should not start at the bottom of a page if the space
available can only fit one line.

3.4 Margins
The text should have the following margins:
• Top : 2.0 cm or 0.79 inch
• Right : 2.0 cm or 0.79 inch
• Left : 4.0 cm or 1.57 inch
• Bottom : 2.0 cm or 0.79 inch

Additional guidelines regarding margin are as follows:
• Do not type more than one sentence after the bottom margin. If it is necessary to do so, it
should only be for a footnote or the completion of the last sentence of the chapter, topic or
sub-topic or information in a figure.
