Thesis and Dissertation Layout Made Easy: Using Word to Format Headings, Tables of Contents and More
“Begin as you mean to go on.” Or, format your research document before you start to write so that you can easily finalize your thesis, dissertation or other research project and submit your work on time.
In this three-hour hands-on workshop designed for students in the arts and social sciences, we introduce participants to basic functions in Microsoft Word that allow them to format documents so that they leave with a template for their research project.
Learning outcomes
At the end of this workshop, participants will be able to use functions in Word to:
- Choose a theme or style
- Create a table of contents using headings and sub-headings
- Add captions to images and figures
Note
Enrollment for this workshop is capped at 16 participants.
Audience: Students writing a dissertation, thesis, master’s research project, or undergraduate research project
Facilitators: Martha Attridge Bufton, Maureen Leslie, Margaret McLeod, and Sherri Sunstrum (Research Support Services, Carleton University Library)
