2. Guideline
 
Formatting:
 
Unless advised otherwise by your Supervisor or Thesis Co-ordinator, your thesis must be typed in one and a half or double line spacing on A4 paper on one side only, using a font size of 12 points for the main text.   Margins are to be: top 20mm, bottom 20mm, left hand side 30mm, and right hand side 20mm (headers and footers are to be within these margins).
