About the Project

I created this LaTeX thesis template during my studies. It is very much based on the guidelines from the Chair of Information Management at the University of Göttingen. Please keep in mind that this is a private and unofficial template made by myself which isn't related or reviewed by the University of Göttingen. Thus, it can be used for different projects at different universities.

       

Getting Started

Pre-Requirements

Make sure that you have installed TeX correctly. If you get some errors, check if you installed all packages / dependencies. It should also work with online editors like Overleaf.

It is highly recommend to use a reference management software to generate the literature.bib file automatically. I suggest using Zotero in combination with Better BibTeX.

Installation

  1. Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/mhellmeier/LaTeX-Thesis-Template.git
cd LaTeX-Thesis-Template
  1. Open the thesis.tex with the LaTeX editor of your choice
  2. Compile it and get started!

Some additional hints:

  • Examples are giving in the *.tex files
  • The citation style is based on the MISQ reference format
  • Important files and folders:
    • thesis.tex: Main file
    • front-page.tex: First page of your thesis
    • packages.tex: Put all your \usepackage commands in here
    • definitions.tex: Location for custom preamble code
    • acronyms.tex: Collection of your acronyms / abbreviations
    • literature.bib: Collection of your literature (for BibLaTeX)
    • images/: Put all your figures in this directory

Roadmap

All planned features, bugs and discussions can be found in the issues tab.
