3. The Body (Chapters)

3.1 Headings

The text, or the main body of a thesis, is divided into multiple chapters to help the reader better understand the subject matter. Although the detailed organization of the text varies among academic disciplines, the formatting of the text must be consistent throughout. All headings and subheadings should be presented in the same way in each chapter, in terms of capitalization, placement on type page and kind of type used. Headers giving the chapter number and chapter title are allowed at the top of the pages.

Chapters are numbered consecutively in Arabic numerals and capital letters (Chapter 1, Chapter 2, etc.). Only new chapters should begin with a new page. Within a chapter, the presentation of subsections must be continuous; partially filled pages of text are acceptable only on non-textual pages, such as those presenting tables and illustrations.
The title of the chapter, e.g. “Chapter 1,” should be written in 16-point font size, all bold capital letters and is centered between the text margins, 60 mm from the top of the page; the title, e.g. “Introduction,” likewise in 16-point font size, all bold capital letters, is placed one-and-a-half (1.5) spaces below and is also centered. The text begins at least three 14-point font spaces (2 x 1.5) below.
Second-level headings, first-level subheadings and second-level subheadings must be left-justified, bold-faced and in 14-point font size. Second-level headings should be numbered as 2.1, 2.2, etc. The first letter of each word except conjunctions, propositions and articles must be capitalized; although the first letter of a title is always capitalized. Second-level heading should be separated from the preceding and succeeding text by a distance of three spaces (2 x 1.5).
First-level subheadings should be numbered as 2.1.1, 2.1.2, etc., and should be separated from the preceding and succeeding text by a distance of three line spaces (2 x 1.5). The first letter of each word except conjunctions, propositions and articles must be capital.
Second-level subheadings, if needed, should be numbered as 2.1.1.1, 2.1.1.2, etc., and should be separated from the preceding and succeeding text by a distance of three line spaces (2 x 1.5). However, second subheadings should be avoided if possible. No further subheadings are allowed.
