GUIDELINES FOR PREPARATION OF THESIS AND
DISSERTATION
1 | P a g e
INTRODUCTION
Your thesis will be among the most important
pieces of work that you would ever write in your life. Its
quality is a reflection not only on you, but also on to
CUCMS. Therefore, this document produced by Centre
for Graduate Studies, Research and Commercialization
(CGSRC) is aimed at helping you to produce the best
theses possible which would also be uniform with other
these produced by students of this university.
The thesis should be written in good scientific
English because it will be referred to by future students
and researchers in your area of work. It is worthwhile to
consider sending your final draft to a proof reader to
ensure high quality of writing.
These instructions take precedence over any
guidelines in your chosen style manual. Follow all
instructions as closely as possible; any deviations must
be approved by the Dean of CGSRC.

Reminder
i. Beginning of each chapter, except
for references and appendices,
must begin 5.0 cm from top edge
of the page.
ii. Table and figures must follow the
specifications set out in 1.2.8 and1.2.9.
iii. The last paragraph on the page
must have at least two full lines of
text, if not; it should begin on the
next page.
iv. The last word in the last line on
the page must be followed by ahyphen.
v. Each page must contain at least
one line of text.
1.2.4 Text Spacing
The line spacing of the basic text should be set at

permitted between chapter headings)
v. list of tables and illustrations
vi. footnotes
vii. references (note: 2.0 spacing between
entries)
viii. appendix
1.2.5 Paragraphing and Line Spacing
The first line of paragraph should begin from the
left margin. Subsequent paragraphs should have
the first line indented 6 spaces or 1.25 cm from
the left margin. Use the tab key for consistency.A heading that appears as a last line on a page
will not be accepted. There should be a
minimum of two lines of a paragraph at the
bottom of the page under the heading.
1.2.6 Page Numbering
Small Roman numerals (i, ii, iii …) are used for
the preliminary pages (all pages before the
introductory chapter). The Title Page is counted
but not numbered. Therefore, the numeral ‘ii’ is
the first number that will be printed and will

1.2.8 Tables
Tables must be accurate and easy to read, and
care is required in spacing, ruling, arrangement
of headings, and placement with respect to the
text. They are used to supplement the text, and
therefore should be within the text or continue
on the following page.
Numbering
Tables should be numbered with an Arabic
numeral and given titles, even though there may
be very few tables in the thesis/dissertation. The
chapter and order in which the tables are
mentioned in the text determine the numbering.For instance, if Chapter 3 has four tables, the
tables should be labelled as Table 3.1, Table 3.2
and so on. All references to a table in the text
should be by number.
Position
Ideally, each table should come immediately
after the first reference to it. However, it is best
to finish the paragraph of the text in which the
reference occurs before inserting the table. If a
table cannot be accommodated in the space

remaining on a given page, continue the text to
make a full page and place the table at the top of
the next page if it is still within the same
subtopic.
If a table appears in the middle of a text
page, three line spacing (3.0) should be left
above table number and below table/notes (i.e.,
the table number is typed on the 4 fourth line
following the text, and the text is continued on
the fourth line below the bottom rule or the
table's notes).
Size and Shape
A table may occupy the full width of the page orless than the full width. In either case, each table
must be centred horizontally on the page.
Width
If a table is too wide for the page, it should be
turned length-wise (i.e., use the landscape
format), and placed horizontally in centre of
page, however, within the prescribed margins.
No text should be placed on a page containing a
broadside table. The page number appears in its

DISSERTATION

usual place, at the bottom of the page, not the
table.
Font size
Ideally the 12-point font size is to be used.
However, the 10-point font size may be used for
content inside the tables if necessary. For any
texts outside the table like table number,
caption, title and notes, the 12-point font size
should be used.
Continued Tables
Long tables may be continued from page to
page. The table number and title are to beplaced at the beginning of the table; only the
table number is given in the succeeding pages,
for example, "Table 2 - Continued ." Ordinarily,
the column headings are repeated on every page
including in a broadside table.
Title
Each table must have a title. Place the table
number above the table, and centre both; place
the title after the table number, centred and
single-spaced, spanning the width of the table.

GUIDELINES FOR PREPARATION OF THESIS AND

10 | P a g e
Leave one single line space between the title and
the table, and between table and notes.
Notes
There are three kinds of notes that are placed
below the table:
i. A general note which qualifies, explains or
provides information relating to the table as a
whole and ends with an explanation of
abbreviations, symbols and the like, designated
by the word Note., italicized and followed by a
period, for example:
Note. All significant three-wayinteractions were omitted. M=match
process; N= non-match process.
ii. A specific note which refers to a particular
column, row or individual entry: specific notes
are indicated by superscript lowercase letters (a,
b, c) and shouldbegin with superscript a; the superscripts should
be ordered from left to right across the table by
rows, starting at the top left; different tables
require their own specific notes (whenever
needed). For example:

an = 25
b This participant did not complete trials.
iii. A probability note which indicates the results
of tests of significance. Asterisks are usually used
to identify probability values such as:
* p < .05
** p < .05 two-tailed
Notes to a table should use the 12-point font
size and should be ordered in the
following sequence: general notes, specific notes
and probability notes. Each type of note shouldbegin from the same margin with the table on a
new line and possibly justified. For example:
Note. The participants’ responses were:a
n = 25.b
n = 42.
* p < .05. ** p < .01.

1.2.9 Figures
Figures are illustrative materials, which include
drawings, paintings, photographs, charts, graphs
and maps. The numbering, position, size, shape
and width of figures are similar to those
specified for tables. However, the number of the
figure should be placed below the figure, at the
left margin.

SAMPLE OF ABSTRACT (D1)
ABSTRACT
The effects of selective timber extraction on wildlife
communities were studied in a hill dipterocarp forest at
Nanga Gaat in Kapit Division of Sarawak. The main study
area was systematically surveyed for one year before it
was logged and for another year immediately after
logging. Logging activity in the area resulted in almost
54% tree loss with another 13% being damaged. Species
compositon of the forest was almost unchanged, but
tree density was reduced by more then half. The
changes in the diversity and density of primates, some
other mammals, and birds following logging were
documented: some species declined in number orbecame locally extinct, some remained relatively stable,
others increased, and a few new species came into the
logged area. The general trend is for the edge or
coloniser species to replace those species which depend
on undisturbed forest and which cannot survive
elsewhere. All the primates present in the main study
area declined in density after logging. The Borneangibbons not only decline in density but also in average
number of individuals in the group. Three squirrel
species declined in density immediately after logging
while four other species increased one year after
logging. The density of two treeshrew species and three

ungulate species also declined after logging. Small
sample sizes and the effect of hunting might have
contributed to the observed results. In birds, the effects
of logging was more variable within and between
species, feeding guilds, and sites. The only common
trend was the decline in density of specialist feeding
birds after logging, while the generalists increased -
some many fold over their pre-logging densitu. While
guidelines are being drawn by the government
authorities towards sustainable loggging, it is believed
that a system of totally protected areas and large
undisturbed areas within concessions are needed to
ensure continued survival of the fauna.

SAMPLE OF ABSTRACT (D2)
ABSTRAK
Kesan pembalakan berpilih terhadap komuniti hidupan
liar telah dikaji di sebuah hutan dipterokap bukit di
Nanga Gaat, Bahagian Kapit, Sarawak. Kawasan utamakajian ditinjau secara sistematik bermula setahun
sebelum ia dibalak sehingga setahun selepas aktiviti
pembalakan tamat. Pembalakan di kawasan tersebut
mengakibatkan kehilangan hampir 54% jumlah pokok
dan kerosakan terhadap 13% yang lain. Komposisi
spesies hutan hampir tidak beruhah, tetapi kepadatan
pokok berkurangan lebih dari separuh. Perubahankepelbagaiman dan kepadatan primat, beberapa spesies
mamalia lain dan burung selepas pembalakan telah
didokumenkan: beberapa spesies berkurangan atau
pupus di peringkat tempatan, beberapa spesies lain
tidak berubah, bberapa spesies pula bertambah, dan
beberapa spesies baru berhijrah ke kawasan tersebut.
Tren umum ialah spesies pinggiran atau yang menjajahmenggantikan spesies yang memerlukan hutan yang
terganggu dan yang tidak boleh hidup di tempat lain.
Kepadatan kesemua primat di kawasan kajian
berkurangan selepas pembalakan. Ungka Borneo tidak
hanya berkurangan dari segi kepadatan malah dari segi

bilangan individu di dalam kumpulan. Kepadatan tiga
spesies tupai berkurangan tetapi kepadatan empat
spesies lagi meningkat selepas pembalakan. Kepadatan
dua spesies tupai muncung (treeshrew ) dan tiga spesies
ungulat menurun selepas pembalakan. Saiz sampel
yang kecil dan kesan aktiviti memburu mungkin telah
mempengaruhi hasil kajian. Kesan pembalakan
terhadap burung adalah lebih pelbagai di dalam dan
antara spesies, kumpulan pemakan, dan tempat. Tren
umum ialah kemerosotan kepadatan pemakan khusus
berikutan pembalakan manakala kepadatan pemakan
am meningkat, sesetengahnya berlipat kali ganda
kepadatan sebelum pembalakan. Walaupun garis
panduan ke arah pembalakan mampan sedang
disediakan oleh pihak kerajaan, adalah dipercayau
bahawa sebuah sistem kawasan-kawasan terlindungdan kawasan-kawasan tidak terganggu yang luas di
dalam kawasan konsesi pembalakan wajar diwujudkan
untuk memastikan kemandirian fauna yang berterusan.
