rlm@422 43 % NOTE:
rlm@422 44 % These templates make an effort to conform to the MIT Thesis specifications,
rlm@422 45 % however the specifications can change. We recommend that you verify the
rlm@422 46 % layout of your title page with your thesis advisor and/or the MIT
rlm@422 47 % Libraries before printing your final copy.

rlm@422 51 % If you wish to list your previous degrees on the cover page, use the
rlm@422 52 % previous degrees command:
rlm@422 53 % \prevdegrees{A.A., Harvard University (1985)}
rlm@422 54 % You can use the \\ command to list multiple previous degrees
rlm@422 55 % \prevdegrees{B.S., University of California (1978) \\
rlm@422 56 % S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology (1981)}
rlm@422 57 \department{Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science}
rlm@422 58
rlm@422 59 % If the thesis is for two degrees simultaneously, list them both
rlm@422 60 % separated by \and like this:
rlm@422 61 % \degree{Doctor of Philosophy \and Master of Science}
rlm@422 62 \degree{Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Engineering}
rlm@422 63
rlm@422 64 % As of the 2007-08 academic year, valid degree months are September,
rlm@422 65 % February, or June. The default is June.

rlm@422 70 %% By default, the thesis will be copyrighted to MIT. If you need to copyright
rlm@422 71 %% the thesis to yourself, just specify the `vi' documentclass option. If for
rlm@422 72 %% some reason you want to exactly specify the copyright notice text, you can
rlm@422 73 %% use the \copyrightnoticetext command.

rlm@422 76 % If there is more than one supervisor, use the \supervisor command
rlm@422 77 % once for each.

rlm@422 80 % This is the department committee chairman, not the thesis committee

rlm@422 82 % Chairman.

rlm@422 84
rlm@422 85 % Make the titlepage based on the above information. If you need
rlm@422 86 % something special and can't use the standard form, you can specify
rlm@422 87 % the exact text of the titlepage yourself. Put it in a titlepage
rlm@422 88 % environment and leave blank lines where you want vertical space.
rlm@422 89 % The spaces will be adjusted to fill the entire page. The dotted
rlm@422 90 % lines for the signatures are made with the \signature command.
rlm@422 91 \maketitle
rlm@422 92
rlm@422 93 % The abstractpage environment sets up everything on the page except
rlm@422 94 % the text itself. The title and other header material are put at the
rlm@422 95 % top of the page, and the supervisors are listed at the bottom. A
rlm@422 96 % new page is begun both before and after. Of course, an abstract may
rlm@422 97 % be more than one page itself. If you need more control over the
rlm@422 98 % format of the page, you can use the abstract environment, which puts
rlm@422 99 % the word "Abstract" at the beginning and single spaces its text.
rlm@422 100
rlm@422 101 %% You can either \input (*not* \include) your abstract file, or you can put
rlm@422 102 %% the text of the abstract directly between the \begin{abstractpage} and
rlm@422 103 %% \end{abstractpage} commands.
rlm@422 104

rlm@422 116 % the second copy of the abstract is not counted as separate pages.
