11 Headings: In disciplines where section numbering is normally used, the following guidelines
apply:
12 Text Font: Acceptable fonts generated by word processing programs include, but are not
restricted to: Times Roman 12. Bold and italics should not be used excessively in the text.
Furthermore, colored text should not be used.
15 Page Numbering: Preliminary pages of the thesis, that is, those preceding the text are to be
numbered in Roman numerals. The first page must not show its page number. Pages of the
text itself and of all items following the text should be numbered consecutively throughout
in Arabic numbers, beginning with number 1 on the first page of the first chapter. Page
numbers should be placed in the lower right corner or center of the page. Only the number
should appear, not page 9.
16 Tables and Figures: Figures and tables should be inserted at the appropriate place in the
text. Figures must have numbers and captions under the figures. Tables have their titles and
numbers above.
17 Drawings: Any material which cannot be typed or computer generated should be drawn
with permanent black ink in neat and heavy lines. Photographs of drawings are acceptable.
Xerox reproductions of drawings are acceptable if they are of high contrast.
18 Photographs: Mount small photographs with glue. Do not use rubber cement or
tape. High-clarity Xerox copies of photographs are also acceptable. However, high-quality
scanned e-images can also be inserted into the thesis text.
19 Footnotes: In disciplines where footnotes are normally used, they should appear at the
bottom of the same page as their reference. Footnotes should be numbered in Arabic
numerals. The footnote reference is superscripted and the explanation at the bottom of the
page begins with the footnote reference number. Footnotes should have a smaller font size
than the text (e.g. 10 pt).

binding must be included. Leave oversize page unfolded. The bindery will fold and insert
them. All pages must appropriately numbered if found in the text.
