We write a diploma. Decor

Work on the diploma project and its protection is the last step separating the student from the coveted diploma. But even here there are many delays related to the design of the text and illustrative part of the thesis. Today we will talk about this.

We write a diploma. Design of the text part

Unfortunately, at the moment there are no uniform standards, therefore educational institutions, based on their practice, establish their own rules. The head of the project simply can not accept from the graduate a diploma, the registration of which does not meet the stated requirements. In addition, the final qualification work will be kept at the department for 5 years and may well be caught by the eyes of any of the inspectors.
Just want to warn that the examples that are given in this article are taken from various methodological tools, and the rules for registration of the diploma 2013 in your university may differ. Be careful!

So, at the moment Microsoft Word - the most common software package, which allows you to design and print both the illustrative part, and directly a diploma. The design, the rules of which we will discuss below, focuses precisely on this application program.

First, let's take a look at the layout of the page, more precisely the fields: the left margin - 3 cm, the right one - 1,5 cm, the upper one - 2 cm, the lower one - 2 cm. As for the font, the standard is Times New Roman 14 pins. Please note that all work, including headings, must be typed in one font. You can only change the font size and its shape. Pages should be numbered, subject to end- to -end numbering from the title to the list of literature and applications (if any). The title page is the first page, although the figure "1" is not placed. Also not marked, but the content and the first page of introduction enter into the general numbering. Thus, you should start with the fourth page, that is, where the text begins. The order number of the page is placed in the middle of the bottom field of the page without a dot.

Registration of chapters and sections

Each new chapter is printed on a new page, while the sections go in succession. Chapters and sub-chapters should be titled, and headings are typed in capital letters with no punctuation at the end. Schemes and tables are not placed in the application and placed inside the text. In this case they have a common numbering. Each must be signed. For example: "Table 1", below is its name. The rest of the illustrative material is published in the annexes, which follow the bibliography and have a separate numbering. Another point to pay attention to is the formulation of the formulas in the diploma. They are signed in Arabic numerals within the chapter or paragraph. Their numbering consists of the paragraph number and the formula separated by a dot. For example, "1.5" (the fifth formula of the first paragraph).

Bibliography

A bibliography or bibliography is an obligatory element that must contain any diploma. The design of this part, as a rule, varies greatly.
A graduate is recommended to use at least 40 sources containing normative legal acts, scientific and educational literature, periodicals, electronic resources.
