Description: This template provides a full framework for writing a graduate level thesis. It is carefully structured and separated into multiple parts for easy editing. Included are the following pages/sections: a cover page, declaration of authorship, quotation, abstract, acknowledgements, contents page(s), list of figures, list of tables, abbreviations, physical constants, symbols, dedication, example chapter, example appendix and bibliography. An example chapter is included which explains the basics of LaTeX and this template. It contains everything you need to know to begin writing your academic thesis using this template. Important note: this template comes as a zip file with multiple files and folders within it. These files are necessary and it is worth reading the Chapter 1 introduction to the thesis to get an idea of what they do. Original Author: This thesis style was originally created by Steve R. Gunn and modified into a template by Sunil Patel. It has since been modified further for this website.

Generic EPFL Template in LaTeX This thesis template is a suggestion: you are not obliged to follow any of the employed formatting (but remember to stay within the requirements given in the Internal Regulations!). It is simply a document that can help you to write your thesis. Here are some hints that may be helpful: Use PDFLATEX for compilation of the file for best compatibility with the Repro. The document needs to be compiled three times so that the chapter-headers are appearing correctly. For the final run (before printing): Compile latex 2x, compile bibtex, compile latex 3x. The document is typeset in Utopia, a font that has been donated by Adobe to the TUG-user community. You do not need to install this font, since it is already available in Latex, but if you want to typeset your image&graphic files with it, you can use the “Utopia Latex” font, which is the open-source Utopia with added Greek character support. It is provided in the template folder (utopia-font). Alternatively you can of course also use the commercial Adobe-Utopia or the “Heureka” (which is Utopia with added Cyrillic support that can be downloaded here In the template there is an example of a vector graphics-image with this font (Utopia Latex). You can find it in the following folder: “images/non_outlined_images/some_vector_graphics.pdf”. Important notice for vector graphics: Similar to many journals, for best printing compatibility, the Repro asks you to provide graphics, where the all the text is “outlined”. Here’s how to do this in Adobe Illustrator: 1) Mark all 2) “Type” -> “Create Outlines” 3) Save the document as a copy (!) in the images-folder. If you omit the last step, you will not be able to edit your text again. Should you encounter any errors while compiling, try switching to the latest version of TeXLive (see FAQ page).
