# Thesis Writing
## Why I Wrote This Tutorial
In 2022, I graduated from my college. When I started writing my thesis, I embarrassingly realized that my command of Word was limited to basic functions like adjusting fonts and saving documents. I considered switching to LaTeX, but formatting requirements for the thesis were more conveniently handled in Word. After a painful struggle, I finally completed the writing and defense of my thesis. To prevent others from following in my footsteps, I compiled relevant resources into a ready-to-use document for everyone's reference.
## How to Write a Graduation Thesis in Word
Just as it takes three steps to put an elephant in a fridge, writing a graduation thesis in Word also requires three simple steps:
1. **Determine the Format Requirements of the Thesis**: Usually, colleges will provide the formatting requirements for theses (font and size for headings, sections, formatting of figures and citations, etc.), and if you're lucky, they might even provide a thesis template (if so, jump to the next step). Unfortunately, my college did not issue standard format requirements and provided a chaotic and almost useless template. Out of desperation, I found the [thesis format requirements](https://github.com/PKUFlyingPig/Thesis-Template/blob/master/%E5%8C%97%E4%BA%AC%E5%A4%A7%E5%AD%A6%E7%A0%94%E7%A9%B6%E7%94%9F%E5%AD%A6%E4%BD%8D%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87%E5%86%99%E4%BD%9C%E6%8C%87%E5%8D%97.pdf) of Peking University graduate students and created [a template](https://github.com/PKUFlyingPig/Thesis-Template/blob/master/%E8%AE%BA%E6%96%87%E6%A8%A1%E7%89%88.docx) based on their guidelines. Feel free to use it, but I take no responsibility for any issues for using it.
2. **Learn Word Formatting**: At this stage, you either have a standard template provided by your college or just a vague set of formatting requirements. Now, the priority is to learn basic Word formatting skills. If you have a template, learn to use it; if not, learn to create one. Remember, there's no need to ambitiously start with a lengthy Word tutorial video. A half-hour tutorial is enough to get started for creating a passable academic paper. I watched [a concise and practical Bilibili tutorial video](https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1YQ4y1M73G?p=1&vd_source=a4d76d1247665a7e7bec15d15fd12349), which is very useful for a quick start.
3. **Produce Academic Work**: The easiest step. Everyone has their own way, so unleash your creativity. Best wishes for a smooth graduation!
