ABSTRACT
The layout of the Title page is centred between the prescribed margins. The vertical centre line is approximately 110 mm from the left-hand edge of the page. The information to be given on the Title page is normally rigidly prescribed by the degree awarding body. Typically, the required information consists of: the full title of the dissertation; the full name of the author and, if desired, any qualifications or distinctions held already (in an abbreviated form); the qualification for which the dissertation is being submitted as part of a statement; the degree awarding body; the name of the institution in which the research is registered; if different to the degree awarding body, and that of any collaborating institution; the month and year of submission; the number of volumes comprising the dissertation, if more than one.
