Title Pages in Papers and A Thesis

The title page of a thesis or essay is the work's first page. It lists the title of the work and the name of the author.

In the case of an academic paper, the title page also lists class information (such as the course name and number), identification information (such as the student number), the date, name of the professor, and name of the institution. The title page is not numbered.

Title pages are not required in all citation styles; instead, some styles require that the same information is placed at the top of the essay's first page.

The title page for a thesis contains the full title, the author's name and academic credentials, the degree-granting faculty and department name, the name of the university and date of graduation, and the universal copyright symbol. The thesis title page is usually page i, but is not numbered; the abstract (page ii) is the first numbered page.

Famous quotes containing the words title, pages, papers and/or thesis:

    Greatness is a light-hearted title for theatrical entertainments. Or a definition endowed on men too long dead to know that it’s been awarded.
    Arthur Ross. Leslie (Tony Curtis)

    I do not suppose that I have attained to obscurity, but I should be proud if no more fatal fault were found with my pages ... than was found with the Walden ice.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The Madcap Heiress, isn’t that what the papers usually call her? Millions of dollars and no sense.
    Vina Delmar, U.S. novelist, playwright. Lucy (Irene Dunne)

    General scepticism is the live mental attitude of refusing to conclude. It is a permanent torpor of the will, renewing itself in detail towards each successive thesis that offers, and you can no more kill it off by logic than you can kill off obstinacy or practical joking.
    William James (1842–1910)
