This respository is a sample project of a Thesis using the itmorelia-thesis-class
with LaTeX. If you want know what sections should be included and its content visit the Wiki of this repository.
Below you can see the repository's contents. The repository is made of 27 files and 2 folders. The folder Chapters
includes each .tex
file that will be included in your thesis; later you will learn how to included. On the other hand, the folder FrontBackMatter
includes .tex
files related with common chapters/section required in the thesis layout: Titlepage, Abstract, Colophon, Dedication, Glossary, and others; you can include as much as you need.
In the root
path, there are files related with the organization and the structure of the Thesis (the thesisStructure.tex
and precontent.tex
files). Also, in root
is included the main file that gives the special format to the document (itmthesis.cls
), and finally the Reference.bib
file to include a bibliography to your work.

thesisStructure.tex
fileThe main file in the project is the thesisStructure.tex
file. The file is mainly divided in five parts: 1)Configuration, 2)Front Matter, 3) Main contents, 4) References and 5)Back Matter.
The file contents is show next, a detailed explaination is presented in the next sections.

The code next only refers to the configuration of the itmthesis
class:
% 1)Configuration:
\documentclass[listings,drafting,spanish]{itmthesis} %itm thesis class
\input{configuration}% configuration and packages
\input{FrontBackMatter/glossary-entries}
From here the document class, for the Protocol, is defined with \documentclass[<options>]{itmthesis}
, and this file determine the way the PDF file is generated by the options. The options defined are:
drafting
: The options prints the date of compilation at the end of each page. Suitable opton to know that the latest version is on review or writing process.listing
: The option loads the listings
package and configures the compilation to generates a gray scale listings outputs.spanish
: The option enables the babel package to print-out the sectional units on spanish language; otherwise, english will be used.configuration.tex
fileThen, \input
command is used to include files with LaTeX
commands. Specifically, the configuration
file includes all the required packages and its configuration, variable(title, author, university, and so on), and command definitions. The complete code is shown next and sectioned on: 1)Listing configuration, 2)Command and Variable definitions, 3)Short descriptions on Math, 4)Packages, and 5)Text space configuration(indent, interline space, and paragraph space); however, the sections that user should modify are only 2), 4) and 5).

Thus, if you require to change the thesis' title modify \myTitle
definition on section 2.1. If you need to change your data as an author modify \myname
on section 2.2, and the same foe the other options as the reviewing group (2.3), and institution (2.4).
On the other hand, if you want to add new packages to your Protocol, you can added on the main file; the thesisStructure.tex
file. However, to maintain a clean code you should add on the configuration
file, specifically on section 4.
Finally to set specific values of separation for tabulation, paragraphs or text separation between text(interline), please modify section 5. Here you can use several measurement units as em
, cm
, in
or lines 2
(just a number). E.g:
\setlength{\parindent}{4em}
\setlength{\parskip}{1cm}
\renewcommand{\baselinestretch}{2.0} % Interlineado

fileThis file includes each entry for acronyms and glossary entries, the syntax of each entry is shown below:
