Style Guide for Theses and Dissertations
Abstract
The AFIT Style Guide for Theses and Dissertations contains guidance for preparing AFIT theses and dissertations; these documents are an important part of the Institute's graduate degree requirements. In this guide you will find detailed information about such topics as the systems of documentation used at AFIT, the formats of graphics and equations to convey technical information, the formats of AFIT theses and dissertations, and the steps necessary to prepare and submit these documents. As you prepare your thesis, you should realize that there are a number of aspects of format and features that are to be followed. Illustrations and equations must be presented in a consistent and standardized format. The appearance of chapter titles and subheadings within chapters is also standardized. Tables of Contents and Lists of Illustrations are required. These prefatory items are also presented in a standard format. This guide will help you establish the correct formats for these features. We strongly recommend that you learn and adopt the preferred formats early in the thesis-writing process; following preferred formats from the beginning will save you time preparing your report in the long run.
