The title page is the very first page in your document. SHSU theses and dissertations all maintain a consistent and official "look" that reflects the university's standards.

The title page is preformatted in the library's template files. Use [Shift-Enter] to insert a line break within an element, e.g. to add previous undergraduate degrees. Ensure there is space between all the elements on the title page. Use punctuation as indicated below.
