This template is recommended, but not mandatory, for UWI STA postgraduates, e.g. MSc, MPhil and PhD candidates, using The Chicago Manual of Style (17th ed.) (CMOS) author-date system, and submitting theses in a traditional format, with either numbered headings or unnumbered headings.
If you are unsure which style manual your faculty uses, see Citing & Referencing (STA). Templates for other style manuals will be released later.
