sjtuthesis is a LaTeX thesis template designed for Shanghai Jiao Tong University students.
The template addresses the need for students to format their theses according to institutional requirements without manually configuring LaTeX document structure and styling. It provides a pre-configured LaTeX environment that handles the specific formatting, layout, and typography standards mandated by the university, allowing writers to focus on content rather than technical presentation details.
Students at Shanghai Jiao Tong University preparing bachelor's, master's, or doctoral theses should adopt this template, as it directly implements the university's official thesis formatting guidelines. The template works with both XeLaTeX and standard LaTeX workflows and is compatible with Overleaf and ShareLaTeX platforms, making it accessible whether users work locally or in cloud-based environments. Anyone unfamiliar with LaTeX thesis formatting or the university's specific requirements will find the template eliminates the need to learn these details from scratch.
The project maintains active engagement with its user base through issue tracking and documentation updates. The repository includes comprehensive examples and configuration options that accommodate different thesis types within the institution. Development activity shows responsiveness to user-reported problems and requests for clarification on template usage.
