Dissertation guidelines

General guidance.

Your dissertation gives you an opportunity to write a substantial piece of academic work on a topic of interest to you. It is an opportunity to produce a work of scholarship, using the academic skills you have developed.

This guidance is designed to help you write your MSc dissertation. Please make sure that you also look at any instructions or guidance specific to your programme. Any programme specific information or requirements takes precidence over this more general guidance. 

Regardless of topic, your dissertation should demonstrate the following skills:

Defining and outlining a research topic

Defining a clear research question

Identifying salient issues

Finding or generating relevant information

Evaluating the information's reliability and validity

Weighing up the evidence on all sides of a debate

Arriving at a well-argued conclusion

Organising and presenting the results of your work critically, cogently, and coherently

There are two major forms of dissertations:

A piece of empirical research, conducted on a topic or issue relevant to health policy

A literature-based long essay, providing analysis of specific research question of relevance to health policy

Which type of dissertation you choose to write is up to you, but do check with your Academic Mentor that your project fulfills the criteria for your programme.

Making your dissertation stand out

Research topic and research question.

Your first task is to choose a topic that interests you. It should be a manageable topic - one that has not been researched excessively, nor so under-researched that there is no literature available for you to build on. Your Academic Mentor will be able to help you with this.

Having read the relevant literature, you need to focus more specifically on a research question. This will ensure that your dissertation has clear focus. A reserach question is not the same as your research topic but rather a specific question that you want to answer. Your research question needs to be defined with care, and your Academic Mentor can help you. 

Methodology

When choosing your topic and defining your research question, you will also have to decide on the conceptual approach - or methodology - you will use to answer your question. Methodology concerns the relationship between your theoretical stance and the manner in which you conduct your investigation. Most health policy dissertations do not fit into any one methodological category or paradigm. However, they are likely to fall in one of three schools of thought:

Empiricist : Dissertations which involve the use of empirical evidence even if it is existing evidence reported in the relevant literature. Empiricism is an approach to evidence that is aligned to the conventions associated with the natural sciences. It is concerned with explaining external realities from an objective standpoint.

Interpretive : Interpretivism is concerned with understanding the nature or meaning of the social world from the subjective standpoint of the people involved. It tends to build on processes of qualitative observation.

Critical or criticalist : Any approach can result in criticism of health policy, but a critical(ist) approach is one that is grounded in the analysis of conflict or relationships of power. A critical(ist) approach may draw on elements of either or both of the other approaches but it is sceptical of empiricism and interpretivism because they do not necessarily question the underlying basis of the status quo.

You are encouraged to take any of these approaches. You are required to explicitly reflect within the dissertation on the basis of your approach.

How to structure your dissertation

The following structure includes the elements that are normally expected in an MSc dissertation. You don't have to follow it blindly, but use it as a starting point for thinking about your structure. Remember to ask for advice from your supervisor about which exact structure is right for your dissertation.

If you are doing a piece of empirical research, a common structure is as follows:

Introduction, including the research question and structure of essay

Literature review and policy context

Methodology and research methods

Findings and analysis

Discussion and implication for policy

The abstract outlines what you did and what your key findings were.

Introduction

Your introduction should give details of the research topic you have decided to focus on, why the topic is of interest, what the gaps in current knowledge are, how your dissertation adds value to previous research (i.e., what is new). It should also include your research question and any sub-set of questions. Your introduction should provide a brief overview of the structure of your dissertation (i.e. what different sections/chapters will focus on).

The literature review should include literature that is pertinent to your research topic and the policy context. It should critically evaluate earlier work in the field, paying due attention to contributions, and to any methodological problems and limitations involved. Your literature review might draw on, among others: policy documents, legislation, statistics from surveys and government sources, research studies, relevant theory, etc.

Having identified gaps in the literature and ways in which you can add value to the research, you need to present your research question and explain how the answer will add to current knowledge. This is one of the most important parts of your dissertation as it links with your methods and can help with structuring your dissertation.

Give details of the methods you have used (sample, procedure etc.). Why have you used these methods? How do they enable you to answer the research question? Why are you using a quantitative or qualitative approach? What are the strengths and limitations of your methods? To what extent, if any, will you be able to generalise on the basis of your research?

If you are doing primary research you need to say how you obtained your sample, how you have ensured anonymity of participants, and address any other ethical issues. You need to explain how you retrieved data, e.g. via interviews or questionnaires. If you are doing secondary data analysis you need to describe the data set you are using and any relevant variables.

If you carry out empirical work, remember to get informed consent and ensure confidentiality (i.e. do not use actual names of individuals, organisations, institutions etc.). Please refer to the  Research Ethics Policy and Procedures  and the  Code of Research Conduct .

Your findings can be presented in different ways and will vary depending on whether your research uses quantitative or qualitative methods.It is key that you explain the steps of your analysis and how you arrived at your findings. 

Discussion and Conclusion

The discussion links your findings with the research question. 

The conclusions drawn should be substantiated from the body of the dissertation. What are the implications for policy? Are there implications for future research?

Length of your dissertation

Dissertations for MSc International Health Policy, MSc International Health Policy (Health Economics), and MSc Global Health Policy should be no more than 6,000 words. For MSc Health Policy, Planning and Financing, your dissertation should not exceed 10,000 words in length. 

The reference list - bibliography - is not included in the word limit. 

Examiners may refer to your appendices during marking, but you should not include any material in this section that you expect to be read and contribute to your final mark.

Presentation and layout

How you layout and present your work matters. It can help make your text easier to comprehend  - or it can make it more difficult. Try not to add too much to a page and leave so space for the reader to breathe. 

Headings and sub-headings will help to organise and structure your argument and will also improve the presentation. Main headings should be in uppercase and sub-headings in title case. For example:

THE HISTORY OF THE ENGLISH NATIONAL HEALTH SERVICE

Health Policy and Planning Challenges in the 21st Century

Tables and figures

If you use tables, graphs, and figures they must be clearly numbered, titled and sourced. Using the chapter number as a prefix will help the reader navigate the tables. Tables in chapter 2 will, therefore, be numbered Table 2.1, Table 2.2 etc. Figures will be numbered in the same way, i.e. Figure 2.1, Figure 2.2 etc.

Formatting guidelines

Make sure you check any programme-specific instructions and consider the guidance of your Academic Mentor. Some general guidelines are:

Try not to put too much on one page

Use 1.5 or double-spacing

Use 3 cm on all margins

Number your pages

Leave a blank line between paragraphs

Check your spelling and punctuation

Stick to one or maximum two fonts

• Use bold and italics sparingly and consistently

Citation, referencing and plagiarism

Please make sure you use a suitable citation and referencing system. The library and LSE Life runs reguarly workshops that will help you get it right. You can find upcoming workshops here . 

If you don't use a proper citation and referencing system, you run the risk of plagiarism. LSE takes plagiarism very seriously and you should always ensure that your work is all your own. There are ways to avoid unintentional plagiarism. Please read our guide here .

Support from your Academic Mentor

At the start of your programme, you will be assigned an Academic Mentor who will also be your dissertation supervisor. The Academic Mentor will guide and assist you in your learning development and give you guidance and feedback. You need to reach out to your mentor to schedule your meetings. If you do not approach your Academic Mentor, he or she may not necessarily reach out to you. It is your obligation to take the initiative.

When you have found a topic for your dissertation, your supervision will consist of three 30 minute individual meetings between you and your Academic Mentor. It is up to you to make the most of the meetings so you cover a range of topics and get the feedback and advice from your Mentor that you need. The meetings should take place during Lent and Summer terms, with the third and final meeting no later than mid-July.

Your Academic Mentor can help you with how you approach and cover your topic, which research questions to ask, and how to structure your dissertation. It is the your responsibility to submit material before your meetings so your Mentor has time to prepare for the meeting. We also recommend that you list any topics or questions you want to discuss, so you can make the most of your time together. Send these one week ahead of the meeting if at all possible. In one of your meetings, your Mentor will give you feedback on a 1,000 word summary or outline of your dissertation.

When you have decided on a topic for your dissertation, you must submit the Dissertation Proposal Form which you will find on Moodle. During the course of the academic year, your teachers and Academic Mentor will give you more information about the dissertation requirements and expectations. 

Please do not expect your Mentor to give meticulous comments on drafts: the purpose of the dissertation is to give you a chance to show your capacity for contributing to academic discussion and debate, and it should be your own effort.

After the end of Summer Term, you are expected to be able to complete your dissertation without further guidance. Do not rely on your Academic Mentor as he or she will not be available for meetings or feedback outside of term time. 

Availability of past MSc dissertations

The Department makes a selection of the highest quality dissertations available for students to access for inspiration. Please contact your Programme Manager for details.

Deadline for submission

You must submit your dissertation  on or before 28 August 2019 at 12.00 (midday)  by  uploading an electronic copy under the correct assignment on the relevant Moodle page . If you are a part-time student, this applies to the August following your second year of study. 

Please also refer to the summative coursework submission guidelines in your Programme Handbook.

Personal safety and risk assessment

LSE policy and good practice require a risk assessment when you engage in academic work away from LSE which creates 'serious additional risk'. For some writing a dissertation involves poring over the latest Government policies, but if your dissertation means going out to interview stakeholders and policy makers you will need to do a risk assessment. 

To ensure your personal safety, please keep the follwing in mind at all times:

Your fieldwork is an important part of your dissertation. However, you should never do anything or go anywhere that you believe would put you at personal risk.

You should always ensure that you let someone know where you are going, when you are planning to return, and when you have returned.

If you are going to interview stakeholder groups take due care. Where possible go with someone else or hold focus groups. Do not put yourself at risk in order to obtain information. It is not worth it.

Use common sense at all times when thinking about where and how to gather your information and always pay attention to your own health and safety.

If you are travelling to a country where you are not a citizen and have no right to health care you should take out insurance to cover your costs, should you fall ill or require some form of assistance. Seek advice from the Students' Union or from travel companies.

If you are travelling to a country where you are not normally resident you should check that you have all of your immunisations current and do not require any further medical treatment before you travel. It is worth seeking advice from the Travel Clinic which is in Mortimer Market (off Capper Street), London WC1E 6AU; this is part of the Outpatients Clinic of the Hospital for Tropical Diseases. Country-specific information is also available on the  Department of Health  website.

Finally, you should check with the  British Foreign and Commonwealth Office  travel advice web pages for specific information regarding the country to which you are travelling.

We expect all students to behave responsibly and comply with the above advice. LSE cannot accept responsibility for problems you encounter as a result of failure to do so.

Please discuss any risk assessment issues of your research with your Academic Mentor before embarking on the research.

Research ethics

The Department of Health Policy promotes the highest ethical standards in the research undertaken by both our staff and students. You must discuss the ethical implications of your research with your Academic Mentor. You may need to complete a research ethics checklist and a research ethics review before doing your research.  These are available here .

It is a requirement that dissertations that are based on data directly gathered from human participants must include a statement to demonstrate that the research has been conducted in accordance with LSE ethical principles.

Certain overseas governments have procedures for the approval of all or any research that directly involves their citizens. Before carrying out any research in such countries, you must make sure you have the necessary permits and approvals. 

In the UK, any research that involves patients of the UK National Health Service must have approval by a Local Research Ethics Committee. In addition, the following research also need ethical approval:

Research involving vulnerable groups or sensitive topics

Research involving groups where permission of a gatekeeper is required for access to members

Research conducted without full informed consent

Research involving access to records of confidential information

Research which would induce unacceptable psychological stress, anxiety, pain or humiliation

In the wider context of research, there is an ethical imperative that people should not be objectified as the 'subjects' of research, but that, wherever possible, they should be empowered as participants in the research process. Ideally, this mean that service users and the members of disadvantaged groups should have a say in how research is designed and conducted. At the very least, it means that you, as a researcher, have a responsibility to fairly and accurately represent the interests and the voices of the participants.

Please make sure you familiarise yourself with LSE's ethical guidelines and code of conduct before doing any research or contacting potential participants in your research.  You can find everything you need to know here . And if you have any questions or concerns, discuss them with your Academic Mentor.

Get to know Michael Ferrer, MSIM student

After spending some time in the defense IT industry, Michael Ferrer decided to return to school for his MSIM degree to gain skills in areas such as data visualization and advance his career. Outside of his studies, Ferrer is a competitive ballroom dancer and member of the Illinois Army National Guard.

Why did you decide to pursue an IM degree?

Before entering the MSIM program, I worked for six years at a network operations center. I enjoyed my time there, but I felt a bit stagnant in my professional growth. I needed a significant change in my life to break that cycle, so when the opportunity to pursue an MSIM degree presented itself, I took the leap and applied.

Why did you choose the iSchool at Illinois?

I earned my bachelor's degree in computer science from Illinois State University in Bloomington, which is about an hour from Urbana-Champaign. Since I'm well acquainted with central Illinois, I welcomed the chance to pursue my graduate education in a familiar environment. I also chose the University of Illinois because of its amazing academic reputation nationally and abroad. I have found the faculty and staff at the iSchool to be very helpful, and while there are a lot of students on campus, my learning environment feels just right with classes that are not too empty or full.

What particular IM topics interest you the most?

I really like classes that leverage tools for data visualization. We get to use tools like Microsoft PowerBI and Salesforce Tableau, which are used in industry to interpret and visualize data into something that clients/customers will understand. I also enjoy classes that cover interdisciplinary concepts, touching on data analytics but also delving into business-related principles and lessons learned from case studies.

What do you do outside of class?

Outside of class, I am primarily a part of Illini DanceSport, which is the university's competitive ballroom dance student organization. I attend many social dance events too, such as salsa, bachata, swing dance, etc. I also serve part time in the military through the Illinois Army National Guard. The organization lets me fulfill my dream of being a soldier, while letting me pursue my civilian education.

What career plans or goals do you have?

As of right now, my plan is to return to St. Louis, Missouri, after completing the MSIM program to pursue a higher-level position at my old workplace. However, I am also open to other opportunities as they present themselves.

For the first time in WVU 3MT competition history, two doctoral students tied for first place. Denis Ruto, from the Statler College, and Paige Zalman, PhD candidate from the College of Applied Human Services, received the same scores to win. Zalman also won the People’s Choice Award. 

Even though Ruto acknowledged that it was a great challenge to narrow down his dissertation and research to under three minutes, he impressed the judges on his presentation titled “Sustainable Nutrient Management Opportunities for Small Communities with Wastewater Lagoons.” 

Meanwhile, Zalman scored points with both the judges and audience members with her presentation on “Exploring Music Major Mental Health Using Photovoice and Narrative Inquiry.” She emphasized the importance of qualitative methodologies that can help people better understand the nature of problems people are researching today.

Second place was awarded to Kayla Steinberger, an immunology specialist in the School of Medicine, for her presentation on “Hypoxia Regulates Vessel-Modifying Macrophages and Vice Versa in Tumors.” She emphasized that, as a future scientist, it’s important to know how to best communicate her science to the public, so she takes every opportunity to get in front of people and “make stuff that's really hard, sound really easy.” 

Vaishakhi Suresh, an industrial and management systems engineering student in the Statler College, received third place for her research presentation on “Exploring the Challenges of Handling Mass Fatalities during the COVID-19 Pandemic.” When asked why she entered the competition, Vaishakhi said, “It's a great opportunity to talk about her research to the rest of the WVU community.” She was also excited to meet other students in different fields and learn more about their research.

This year’s judges included Ming Lei, senior associate vice president in the Office of Research and Graduate Education and vice dean of research in the School of Medicine; Rachel Morris, biology doctoral student in the Eberly College of Arts and Sciences; Mikylah Myers, associate dean of artistic and scholarly achievement in the College of Creative Arts; Patricia Slagel, assistant director of advising and student operations of graduate programs in the John Chambers College of Business and Economics; and Daniel Totzkay, assistant professor of communication studies in the Eberly College of Arts and Sciences. 

The internationally renowned 3MT competition, originally founded by the University of Queensland in Australia, challenges doctoral students to present their research topic and its significance in three minutes using a single PowerPoint slide. Competitors develop academic, presentation and research communication skills while gaining experience pitching their research succinctly to a non-specialist audience. 

Grand Finale prizes include: 

• First Place Prize: $1,000 

• Second Place Prize: $750 

• Third Place Prize: $500 

• People’s Choice Prize: $250

• Typst 是一门新生的排版标记语言，还做不到像 Word 或 LaTeX 一样成熟稳定。
• 该模板并非官方模板，而是民间模板， 存在不被认可的风险 。

Typst 是可用于出版的可编程标记语言，拥有变量、函数与包管理等现代编程语言的特性，注重于科学写作 (science writing)，定位与 LaTeX 相似。可以阅读我的 一篇知乎文章 进一步了解 Typst 的优势。

• 语法简洁 ：上手难度跟 Markdown 相当，文本源码阅读性高，不会像 LaTeX 一样充斥着反斜杠与花括号。
• 编译速度快 ：Typst 使用 Rust 语言编写，即 typ(esetting+ru)st，目标运行平台是WASM，即浏览器本地离线运行；也可以编译成命令行工具，采用一种 增量编译 算法和一种有约束的版面缓存方案， 文档长度基本不会影响编译速度，且编译速度与常见 Markdown 渲染引擎渲染速度相当 。
• 环境搭建简单 ：不需要像 LaTeX 一样折腾几个 G 的开发环境，原生支持中日韩等非拉丁语言，无论是官方 Web App 在线编辑，还是使用 VS Code 安装插件本地开发，都是 即开即用 。
• 现代编程语言 ：Typst 是可用于出版的可编程标记语言，拥有 变量、函数、包管理与错误检查 等现代编程语言的特性，同时也提供了 闭包 等特性，便于进行 函数式编程 。以及包括了 [标记模式] 、 {脚本模式} 与 $数学模式$ 等多种模式的作用域，并且它们可以不限深度地、交互地嵌套。并且通过 包管理 ，你不再需要像 TexLive 一样在本地安装一大堆并不必要的宏包，而是 按需自动从云端下载 。

可以参考我参与搭建和翻译的 Typst 中文文档网站 迅速入门。

快速浏览效果: 查看 thesis.pdf ，样例论文源码：查看 thesis.typ

你只需要修改 thesis.typ 文件即可，基本可以满足你的所有需求。

如果你认为不能满足你的需求，可以先查阅后面的 Q&A 部分。

模板已经上传到了 Typst Universe，使用起来十分简单，理论上只需要通过

Typst 提供了官方的 Web App，支持像 Overleaf 一样在线编辑，这是一个 例子 。

实际上，我们只需要在 Web App 中的 Start from template 里选择 modern-nju-thesis ，即可在线创建模板并使用。

但是 Web App 并没有安装本地 Windows 或 MacOS 所拥有的字体，所以字体上可能存在差异，所以推荐本地编辑！

你需要手动上传 fonts 目录下的字体文件到项目中，否则会导致显示错误，出现空白！

PS: 虽然与 Overleaf 看起来相似，但是它们底层原理并不相同。Overleaf 是在后台服务器运行了一个 LaTeX 编译器，本质上是计算密集型的服务；而 Typst 只需要在浏览器端使用 WASM 技术执行，本质上是 IO 密集型的服务，所以对服务器压力很小（只需要负责文件的云存储与协作同步功能）。

VS Code 本地编辑（推荐）

• 也推荐下载 Typst Companion 插件，其提供了例如 Ctrl + B 进行加粗等便捷的快捷键。
• 你还可以下载我开发的 Typst Sync 和 Typst Sympy Calculator 插件，前者提供了本地包的云同步功能，后者提供了基于 Typst 语法的科学计算器功能。
• 按下 Ctrl + Shift + P 打开命令界面，输入 Typst: Show available Typst templates (gallery) for picking up a template 打开 Tinymist 提供的 Template Gallery，然后从里面找到 modern-nju-thesis ，点击 ❤ 按钮进行收藏，以及点击 + 号，就可以创建对应的论文模板了。
• 最后用 VS Code 打开生成的目录，打开 thesis.typ 文件，并按下 Ctrl + K V 进行实时编辑和预览。

• 编写更详细的说明文档，后续考虑使用 tidy 编写，你现在可以先参考 NJUThesis 的文档，参数大体保持一致，或者直接查阅对应源码函数的参数
• 应该对所有函数入参进行类型检查，及时报错
• 类似 LaTeX 中的 documentclass 的全局信息配置
• 盲审模式 ，将个人信息替换成小黑条，并且隐藏致谢页面，论文提交阶段使用
• 双面模式 ，会加入空白页，便于打印
• 自定义字体配置 ，可以配置「宋体」、「黑体」与「楷体」等字体对应的具体字体
• 数学字体配置 ：模板不提供配置，用户可以自己使用 #show math.equation: set text(font: "Fira Math") 更改
• 表格使用 1.1 格式进行编号
• 数学公式使用 (1.1) 格式进行编号
• 定理环境（这个也可以自己使用第三方包配置）

还实现了本科生和研究生的开题报告，只需要预览和编辑 others 目录下的文件即可。

我不会 LaTeX，可以用这个模板写论文吗？

如果你不关注模板的具体实现原理，你可以用 Markdown Like 的语法进行编写，只需要按照模板的结构编写即可。

我不会编程，可以用这个模板写论文吗？

如果仅仅是当成是入门一款类似于 Markdown 的语言，相信使用该模板的体验会比使用 Word 编写更好。

为什么我的字体没有显示出来，而是一个个「豆腐块」？

这是因为本地没有对应的字体， 这种情况经常发生在 MacOS 的「楷体」显示上 。

你应该安装本目录下的 fonts 里的所有字体，里面包含了可以免费商用的「方正楷体」和「方正仿宋」，然后再重新渲染测试即可。

你可以使用 #fonts-display-page() 显示一个字体渲染测试页面，查看对应的字体是否显示成功。

如果还是不能成功，你可以按照模板里的说明自行配置字体，例如

先是填写英文字体，然后再填写你需要的「楷体」中文字体。

字体名称可以通过 typst fonts 命令查询。

如果找不到你所需要的字体，可能是因为 该字体变体（Variants）数量过少 ，导致 Typst 无法识别到该中文字体。

学习 Typst 需要多久？

一般而言，仅仅进行简单的编写，不关注布局的话，你可以打开模板就开始写了。

如果你想进一步学习 Typst 的语法，例如如何排篇布局，如何设置页脚页眉等，一般只需要几个小时就能学会。

如果你还想学习 Typst 的「 元信息 」部分，进而能够编写自己的模板，一般而言需要几天的时间阅读文档，以及他人编写的模板代码。

如果你有 Python 或 JavaScript 等脚本语言的编写经验，了解过函数式编程、宏、样式、组件化开发等概念，入门速度会快很多。

我有编写 LaTeX 的经验，如何快速入门？

可以参考 面向 LaTeX 用户的 Typst 入门指南 。

目前 Typst 有哪些第三方包和模板？

可以查看 Typst Universe 。

为什么只有一个 thesis.typ 文件，没有按章节分多个文件？

因为 Typst 语法足够简洁 、 编译速度足够快 、并且 拥有光标点击处双向链接功能 。

语法简洁的好处是，即使把所有内容都写在同一个文件，你也可以很简单地分辨出各个部分的内容。

编译速度足够快的好处是，你不再需要像 LaTeX 一样，将内容分散在几个文件，并通过注释的方式提高编译速度。

光标点击处双向链接功能，使得你可以直接拖动预览窗口到你想要的位置，然后用鼠标点击即可到达对应源码所在位置。

还有一个好处是，单个源文件便于同步和分享。

即使你还是想要分成几个章节，也是可以的，Typst 支持你使用 #import 和 #include 语法将其他文件的内容导入或置入。你可以新建文件夹 chapters ，然后将各个章节的源文件放进去，然后通过 #include 置入 thesis.typ 里。

我如何更改页面上的样式？具体的语法是怎么样的？

理论上你并不需要更改 nju-thesis 目录下的任何文件，无论是样式还是其他的配置，你都可以在 thesis.typ 文件内修改函数参数实现更改。具体的更改方式可以阅读 nju-thesis 目录下的文件的函数参数。

例如，想要更改页面边距为 50pt ，只需要将

后续我也会编写一个更详细的文档，可能会考虑使用 tidy 来编写。

如果你阅读了那些函数的参数，仍然不知道如何修改得到你需要的样式，欢迎提出 Issue，只要描述清楚问题即可。

或者也欢迎加群讨论：943622984

该模板和其他现存 Typst 中文论文模板的区别？

其他现存的 Typst 中文论文模板大多都是在 2023 年 7 月份之前（Typst Verison 0.6 之前）开发的，当时 Typst 还不不够成熟，甚至连 包管理 功能都还没有，因此当时的 Typst 中文论文模板的开发者基本都是自己从头写了一遍需要的功能/函数，因此造成了 代码耦合度高 、 意大利面条式代码 、 重复造轮子 与 难以自定义样式 等问题。

该模板是在 2023 年 10 ～ 11 月份（Typst Verison 0.9 时）开发的，此时 Typst 语法基本稳定，并且提供了 包管理 功能，因此能够减少很多不必要的代码。

并且我对模板的文件架构进行了解耦，主要分为了 utils 、 pages 和 layouts 三个目录，这三个目录可以看后文的开发者指南，并且使用 闭包 特性实现了类似不可变全局变量的全局配置能力，即模板中的 documentclass 函数类。

我不是南京大学本科生，如何迁移该模板？

我在开发的过程中已经对模板的各个模板进行了解耦，理论上你只需要在 pages 目录中加入你需要的页面，然后更改少许、或者不需要更改其他目录的代码。

具体目录职责划分可以看下面的开发者指南。

template 目录

• thesis.typ 文件: 你的论文源文件，可以随意更改这个文件的名字，甚至你可以将这个文件在同级目录下复制多份，维持多个版本。
• ref.bib 文件: 用于放置参考文献。
• images 目录: 用于放置图片。
• utils 目录: 包含了模板使用到的各种自定义辅助函数，存放没有外部依赖，且 不会渲染出页面的函数 。
• pages 目录: 包含了模板用到的各个 独立页面 ，例如封面页、声明页、摘要等，即 会渲染出不影响其他页面的独立页面的函数 。
• 主要分成了 doc 文稿、 preface 前言、 mainmatter 正文与 appendix 附录/后记。
• 职责一 : 作为一个统一的对外接口，暴露出内部的 utils 函数。
• 职责二 : 使用 函数闭包 特性，通过 documentclass 函数类进行全局信息配置，然后暴露出拥有了全局配置的、具体的 layouts 和 pages 内部函数。
• 在 Issues 中提出你的想法，如果是新特性，可以加入路线图！
• 实现路线图中仍未实现的部分，然后欢迎提出你的 PR。
• 同样欢迎 将这个模板迁移至你的学校论文模板 ，大家一起搭建更好的 Typst 社区和生态吧。
• 感谢 @atxy-blip 开发的 NJUThesis LaTeX 模板，文档十分详细，本模板大体结构都是参考 NJUThesis 的文档开发的。
• 感谢 @csimide 帮忙补充的 bilingual-bibliography 。
• 感谢 HUST-typst-template 与 sysu-thesis-typst 等 Typst 中文论文模板。
