Postgraduate study in the School of Mathematics
The School is small and the setting is informal which encourages close contact with staff, postdoctoral fellows, visiting scholars and fellow postgraduate students. The workshops and guests of the School's Hamilton Mathematics Institute, TCD in addition to its joint seminars with the School of Theoretical Physics of the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies and TCD's three neighbouring universities provide a stimulating intellectual backdrop to a student's stay at TCD.
There are no formal course requirements for those pursuing a degree by research, but research students are expected to participate fully in appropriate seminars. Prospective students are expected to have achieved at least a II.1 degree and to have the necessary background to pursue advanced study in their chosen field of research. For an M.Sc. candidate the focus is on writing a substantial thesis that takes account of previously published results but which falls short of the originality expected of a Ph.D. thesis. Following evidence of initial work on a thesis topic an M.Sc. candidate may apply to transfer to the Ph.D. register after the first year. For research degrees, the range of topics is limited by the expertise and availability of supervisors within the School. See the topics below.
The college handbook on postgraduate research can be found here and provides many details regarding research masters and PhD programmes. The regulations governing postgraduate studies are found in Part III of the College Calendar .
Entry Requirements
Postgraduate work in Trinity College Dublin is very academically challenging and as a result the University has high academic entry requirements.
Applicants will need to hold:
- at least a 2.1 honors degree from an Irish university or equivalent result from a university in another country
- a fluent command of the English language
Some courses may require higher standards or require you to take further tests or attend an interview.
Postgraduate Research Degrees
All students undertaking a research degree are assigned to a single principal supervisor. The supervisor’s role is essentially that of an academic guide and mentor.
If you plan to carry out your degree by research, you are advised to contact the School of Mathematics with your research proposal and arrange a suitable supervisor before submitting your application. You should initially consult the School website for further information.
Virtually all research students are initially placed on the Masters register. They may then transfer to the Ph.D. register if their progress has been satisfactory. Such transfers usually occur during the second year of full-time study.
Confirmation to the PhD registry
The confirmation to the PhD registry should occur within the first 18 months from a student's first enrolment, namely, by the end of September for students who started in March, and by the end of February for those who started in September.
The confirmation procedure serves to ensure that you are making sufficient progress on your PhD research and to give you a head start in writing your thesis.
For confirmation to the PhD registry, students are required to:
- Write a 20-page report on their work. Students are advised to discuss their report with their supervisor before submitting it to the director of postgraduate studies. Their report should be finalised approximately one month before the 18-month period, at the very latest.
- Give a short (approximately 20-minute) talk on their research, after submitting their report to their supervisor, another academic (the reader) and the director of postgraduate studies.
- Complete the 5-credit Blackboard module on Research Integrity and Impact, ideally within the first 6 months.
Viva-voce presentations
Here is the list of steps that PhD students and their supervisors are required to follow as they organise the viva-voce.
- Complete the "Intention to submit" form at least 1 month (and preferably 7 weeks) prior to the submission date for the thesis (which is listed below).
- Submit the "external examiner application form" 10 weeks before the viva voce.
- Submit the thesis to the Academic Registry at least 9 weeks before the viva voce.
- If electronic submission is chosen, as recommended, the thesis will be sent directly from the Academic Registry to the external examiner.
- Internal and External examiners should receive guidelines for filling in the relevant forms: a pre-viva form (one for each examiner) and a post viva form, which one of the examiners (usually the internal examiner) completes and sends to the Academic Registry.

Template for the phd thesis at university college dublin (ucd).
This template has not been reviewed or approved in any way by either UCD or the School of Computer Science
Available on Overleaf
Before you start with this template, please have a look at this page: Guidelines for Preparation, Submission, Examination and Dissemination of Research Degree Theses . It will give you some important background information concerning the presentation of your thesis.
As far as I can tell, UCD do not provide a latex template and it is up to you to ensure that your thesis conforms to the guidelines before submitting it. This template is based on the well-known ClassicThesis template, with some additions to conform to the UCD requirements. You are welcome to use it, and to customise it for your own needs.
The UCD guidelines for how the PhD thesis should be prepared are fairly concise:
Layout: Layout: Margins at the binding edge shall be not less than 30mm and other margins not less than 20mm. One-and-a-half spacing shall be used, except for indented quotations and footnotes, where single spacing may be used. Font: The recommended font shall be a sans serif font (including Arial, Helvetica, Tahoma or Trebuchet) and shall not be less than 11pt. Footnotes shall not be less than 9pt. Page Numbering: Pages shall be numbered consecutively throughout the substantive text of the thesis, including appendices. Prefacing pages shall also be numbered consecutively, but utilising the Roman numeral format (i., ii., iii., iv., v., etc.). Page numbers shall be right justified at the bottom of the page. If there is more than one volume, each volume shall carry its own pagination. Title Page: The title page of every volume shall give the following information in the order listed: The full title of the thesis and subtitle, if any. The full name of the author (followed, if desired, by any qualifications). The candidate’s UCD student number. That "This thesis is submitted to University College Dublin in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of [Research Masters or Doctor of...(insert as applicable)]. The School(s) in which the research was conducted. Name(s) of the Head(s) of School(s) in which the research was undertaken. Name(s) of the Principal Supervisor, and Co-supervisor(s) if relevant, of the research. The month and year of submission of the thesis to the University for examination. If a thesis is submitted for re-examination, the resubmission month and year should be listed on the title page. Table of Contents: The table of contents shall immediately follow the title page. It should list the title of each chapter and the main sections in each chapter together with the relevant starting page numbers. Other Lists: Lists of tables, figures, diagrams, photographs, abbreviations etc . If a thesis contains such lists it is required that a separate list of each item, as appropriate, is provided immediately after the Table of Contents page(s). Such lists must give the page number of each item on the list. Abstract: There shall be a summary abstract of the thesis (of approximately 300 words) immediately following the Table of Contents page(s) Statement of Original Authorship: The following statement of original authorship shall immediately follow the abstract page, “I hereby certify that the submitted work is my own work, was completed while registered as a candidate for the degree stated on the Title Page, and I have not obtained a degree elsewhere on the basis of the research presented in this submitted work”. Collaborations: Where the research activity for the thesis was undertaken jointly with others, the name of such collaborators or co-authors must be listed immediately following the statement of original authorship page, including a short description of the nature of the contribution made by each author, including the candidate. Appendix 2 ‘‘Principles for the Production of Alternative Thesis Format’ provide additional guidance on acknowledging such collaborations. Publications from the work (if relevant): List any publications or articles submitted for publication from the research described in the thesis Acknowledgements (if required): Dedication, acknowledgment and similar can be included as the final page Bibliography: The style of bibliographic citations and references may be chosen by the candidate but must be consistent throughout the thesis.
And finally, each School will have their own guidelines and customs and you should consult your supervisor to ensure you follow the appropriate norms:
It is recommended that candidates discuss word or page limits for the chapters with their supervisor(s) and Research Studies Panel, as norms will vary across disciplines.
I can't support ClassicThesis , but there is plenty of information about how to customise it online.
If you want to customise any of the settings, the place to start is tex/classicthesis-config.tex . The main file is UCDThesis.tex which \includes the files for each section. The first thing you will do is modify the Personal Data in tex/classicthesis-config.tex .
Overleaf has some excellent documentation to get you started with latex.
I tried to follow the UCD guidelines as closely as possible. If you have any improvements or suggestions for this template, feel free to contact me: [email protected] .
Compilation fails with: Latexmk: Couldn't find aux file 'out/FrontBackmatter/Titlepage.aux'
The output of a latex compile is placed in the out directory, which is created the first time you run make . Just run make again and it should compile fine.
The default latex engine is lualatex . Can I change it to pdflatex ?
Yes, you can change it and it should work, except for the title page. There are a few fonts on the title page and it's a lot easier to switch fonts with fontspec which is not supported by pdflatex . Fixes should be straightforward- happy to accept contributions!
I have a problem with special characters, the compilation fails as soon as there is a special character in my file
For best cross-platform compatibility, the template is configured for "UTF-8" input encoding instead of platform specific encodings (such as "Western-Latin for Mac").

Writing Skills
If you are writing a critical essay the following steps might prove useful. But remember flexibility is important so constantly monitor and evaluate the strategies and approach you have chosen.
Steps to writing better essays
- Determine date of submission and work backwards to the present, remembering things usually take longer than you expect! A planner can be useful to keep track.
- Generate a list of writing tasks involved, such as selecting a topic, writing a thesis statement or research question, initial research, creating an outline, research, first draft, revising, second draft, references, proof reading, final draft.
- Estimate how much time each task may take and assign it a deadline. You may have to revise your schedule once you have clarified your topic.
- You will get better at estimating the time required for each task as you become more familiar with the library and your own writing style.
Understanding the question
- If you have been given a specific topic, find out as many details as possible such as who will be reading the paper, what is the specific purpose, how long should it be, what type of content is expected.
- If you have a choice in topic, start by generating ideas. Ensure the topic is feasible (given time limits and resources), of interest to you and appropriate (check out the idea with your tutor). Keep an “ideas” file for future reference, ask your lecturer, check journal articles, brainstorm or use free writing.
- Create a thesis statement or question. Similar to a news headline using key words that makes an assertion or describes an action. Be as specific as possible.
Do initial research
- Try to get an overview of the subject that may help you to determine the structure of your paper.
- Scan the relevant literature to see how much material is available, always keeping in mind your thesis statement/research question so you do not get sidetracked.
Create an outline
- Using the key words in your thesis statement try to make a skeletal outline. As you gather more information this can become more detailed. Keep in mind both content and structure of the essay.
- Take into account the length of the paper.
- Try to write a sentence or paragraph per heading. Keep room for additional ideas.
- Essay papers usually have an introduction, the main body, and conclusions section.
- As you begin to write, an outline keeps you on track!
Doing the research
- You are looking for information to answer your question and evidence to support your argument. One suggestion is to use 3” x 5” index cards, putting one idea per card.
- Read the information critically, evaluating the relevance and validity. Take summary notes. Possible sources include books, journal articles, correspondence, radio, TV, notes.
- Copy all information carefully, noting when the ideas are your own or the author’s, especially quotations; keep track of page numbers.
- Be selective. Students often go overboard on researching, never getting around to writing. Ask yourself is this relevant to my question/statement?
- Use source cards that record relevant information such as author, title, and year of publication, city of publication and publisher. It’s hard to backtrack at a later date when you are under pressure to get the paper written.
- Check what type of referencing your department uses; this can differ.
Writing the first draft
- Gather your notes and outline; start writing!! This step is to help you clarify your own thinking on the subject and to create flow. This is not for keeps so just write as if you were talking or explaining the subject to someone.
- Try to write one idea per paragraph. Be concise and use logical transitions although you can always reorganise the order at a later date.
- Remember you are trying to create a coherent argument or approach.
- Put the draft aside for a day or two and then rewrite.
Revising the draft
- Reread the draft first, preferably out loud.
- Cut out any unnecessary words or paragraphs that don’t fit the purpose.
- Rearrange so that the argument flows logically.
- Let a friend read the paper and critique it.
- Be critical, looking at words and phrases: use an active not passive voice, check grammar and spelling, avoid vagueness.
- Once you are sure you have covered your topic and the argument is coherent, then check your presentation: preferably typewritten with proper spacing and margins, quality paper, binder or folder – as if it was a sales job.
Proofread. Make copies. Submit!
- Always proofread your essay and run a spellcheck
- Ensure you follow the instructions on submitting your essay to avoid errors
- When you get your paper back read any comments and ask for comments to be explained. Examine how you can improve for your next writing assignment.
