This repository is a fork of COPCSE-NTNU/thesis-NTNU. The repository contains a template for reports written for TDT4501 - Computer Science, Specialization Project.
Below is the original README from the original repository.
To alter the details of the front page, edit ntnuthesis.cls and change the definitions at the top of the thesis.tex file.
CoPCSE@NTNU – Community of Practice for Computer Science Education at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology – is an informal forum for lecturers in computer science and related fields across campuses and departments.
The current repository provides a LaTeX thesis template that should in principle be applicable for theses at all study levels – bachelor, master and PhD. It is closely based on the standard LaTeX report document class with added packages and customisations. The purpose of the document provided in thesis.tex is threefold. It should serve (i) as a description of the document class, (ii) as an example of how to use it, and (iii) as a thesis template.
The template does not have any official status, and it is not a general NTNU-level requirement to use it. It replaces previous templates like https://github.com/COPCSE-NTNU/bachelor-thesis-NTNU and https://github.com/COPCSE-NTNU/master-theses-NTNU.
You can use the template with Overleaf, and you are strongly encouraged to do so. The alternative is to install local copy of LaTeX on your laptop (not adviced, huge, difficult).
You should fork the CoPCSE repo so that you have your own files to edit and you can always merge with the upstream changes to the template, in case the template is updated.
There are two ways for setting up the Overleaf project with the template:
- Use the
.zipcopy and upload. - Fork the the CoPCSE repo so that you have your own files to edit.
The template also provides a simple Makefile which allows you to build the document locally. This requires that you have a LaTeX compiler, such as texlive, installed locally, which has to provide the commands pdflatex and biber.
