LaTeX

LaTeX is a specific document preparation system that allows for high-quality typesetting and is especially useful for technical and scientific documentation.

For use within ITC, there are two manuals available for your MSc or PhD thesis

  • You can download the ITC LaTeX package via the ITC software manager and use it on your laptop. This will allow you to work on LaTeX projects offline.  This installation will include the MSc and PhD thesis templates (made by Rolf de By).
  • There are also slightly different templates available for ITC MSc and PhD theses to use in Overleaf (with an institutional login available). You can use such a template by following these instructions: 
  1. PhD template: Clone the template found here. The clone will be your own project. It includes a readme file and the manual.
  2. MSc template: Clone the template found here. And continue using that clone for your project.

Find more information on The LaTeX project website https://www.latex-project.org/.
