LaTeX Thesis Templates by University
These are official-style thesis and dissertation LaTeX templates for 87 universities, among them MIT, Oxford, Cambridge, ETH Zürich, TUM, IIT, BUET and BRAC. Each one sets up the title page, margins, declaration and front matter the way the department expects, so you start from a document that already passes the formatting check instead of rebuilding one from an article class.

From people using these
“LetX is essential for group work. Real-time compiling, a huge template library, and several of us editing at once are what I needed and could not find elsewhere.”
“I have only just started, and the number of templates for documentation is mind blowing. The Beamer slides especially. I never knew Beamer could look this beautiful.”
Shared with permission by researchers and students on the LetX researcher programme. Lightly edited for spelling and grammar, never for meaning.
Questions
Will my university accept a LaTeX thesis template from here?
These follow each institution's published formatting rules: page size and margins, the title page, the order of the declaration and abstract, and the required line spacing. Departments do change their handbook between years, so before you submit, check the current guidelines for the details your examiners care about, which usually means spacing, margin width, and whether a signed declaration page is required.
My university is not listed. What should I use?
Start from a template for a university with a similar structure, or from a general thesis or book class, and change the title page and margins to match your handbook. Most institutional requirements come down to a handful of geometry and front-matter settings rather than a bespoke document class.
Can several people write a thesis together here?
Yes. Projects sync in real time, so a student and a supervisor can sit in the same document at once, and every save keeps a version you can go back to. That is the usual reason groups move a thesis off a local install.
