% A Sample Thesis for the University of Calgary
% =============================================
% This is a sample LaTeX document to build a University of Calgary
% graduate thesis according to the guidelines of the Faculty of
% Graduate Studies, available here:
% https://grad.ucalgary.ca/current-students/thesis-based-students/thesis/building-thesis
% To use this sample for your own thesis, rename this file, make any changes
% necessary, then add the content of your thesis t othe included files
% frontmatter.tex, chapter1.tex, etc.
% First, we load the UCalgary Memoir Thesis class ucalgmthesis,
% available at https://github.com/rzach/ucalgmthesis
% By default (without options), this produces a 1-1/2 spaced thesis in
% 11 point font without running heads. See the README file for a
% description of all package options.
% In our sample we give three options: Option utopia sets the thesis in a
% nice font. Option headers produces running heads. Option manuscript
% formats the page in a way suitable for reading and commenting: 12 pt type,
% double spaced, approx. 25 lines per page, with approx. 72 characters
% per line. For filing in the Vault, remove that option to produce a
% more compact thesis with a slightly better layout.
\documentclass[utopia,headers,manuscript]{ucalgmthesis}
% Using LaTeX? Then you're probably using math, and so you want to use
% the AMS math commands and define some theorem environments! But you
% can take these out or use your own favorite theorem package.
\usepackage{amsmath,amsthm}
\newtheorem{thm}{Theorem}
\theoremstyle{definition}
\newtheorem{defn}[thm]{Definition} % please number all of them together!
% microtype makes everything look better
\usepackage{microtype}
% We'll need some colored links, so we load xcolor and hyperref. But
% you can take that out if you don't want links at all.
\usepackage[dvipsnames]{xcolor}
% You can turn off the boxes around links made by hyperref. Then links
% will appear in a different color, and per guidelines, all links must
% be blue or black. For blue links say
\usepackage[colorlinks,allcolors=MidnightBlue]{hyperref}
% For black links,
% \usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}
% If you prefer hyperref's boxes around links (which don't print), you
% can also change their color. With boxes around links, you probably
% don't want everything in the table of contents to be a link, so we
% only make the page numbers links.
%
% \usepackage[allbordercolors=Periwinkle,linktocpage]{hyperref}
% The table of contents in your PDF reader's sidebar is just titles by
% default, but it's nice to also have chapter and section numbers for
% easy navigation.
\usepackage[numbered]{bookmark}
% For author-year references, you probably want to use natbib with a
% bibliography style appropriate for your discipline; or check out
% latexbib!
\usepackage[round]{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{plainnat}
% The blindtext package produces the ``lorem ipsum''
% texts in this sample and can safely be removed.
\usepackage{blindtext}
% Now we put in the information for the thesis title page.
% Full Name
\author{Jane Mary Doe}
% Full Title
\title{An Important Contribution to the Literature}
% Official name of the degree
\degree{Doctor of Philosophy}
% The name of the graduate program (not the department!)
\prog{Graduate Program in Philosophy}
% The month (for the final version: when you file, not when you defended)
\monthname{May}
% The year
\thesisyear{2019}
% Tell hyperref to put author and title into the PDF metadata
\hypersetup{pdfinfo={Title={\thetitle},Author={\theauthor}}}
% If you want memoir to produce endnotes, turn them on here
\makepagenote
% Often you only want to output a single chapter so you can send it to
% your supervisor. Use includeonly and make sure everything you don't
% always want compiled to PDF is include'd from a separate file. For
% instance, to produce a PDF only of chapter 1, endnotes and
% bibliography, say
% \includeonly{chapter1,backmatter}
% To compile only the title page, which you need when submitting your
% thesis, say
% \includeonly{titlepage}
% and then copy the resulting PDF to a separate file.
\begin{document}
\frontmatter
% titlepage.tex just makes the titlepage; it's in its own file so you
% can typeset it alone using includeonly.
\include{titlepage}
% frontmatter.tex contains the abstract, preface, acknowledgments, and
% the commands to produce the table of contents, list of tables, etc.
\include{frontmatter}
% The main matter of the thesis contains the actual content, separated
% into chapters.
\mainmatter
\include{chapter1}
\include{chapter2}
% The back matter includes commands to produce endnotes, index,
% glossary, bibiliography, and the like.
\backmatter
\include{backmatter}
% The appendix contains material that would clutter up the main text,
% such as program code, survey instruments, or interview transcripts.
% Remove it if you don't have an appendix.
