Formatting your thesis in Word

This guide is primarily intended for those who use the Library's thesis templates in Word, but may also be useful for those who have chosen not to use the templates.
  • Save with a new name after each day's writing. For example, you can add a number or date (e.g. mythesis_2021-01-02).
  • Save a copy of the latest version in three different locations, e.g. computer, USB stick and in the cloud (e.g. email, Google Drive or iCloud).
