* Format of the Sections is generic and can be changed based on the recommendations of reviewers.

* Each Section should be given an appropriate title.

* Tables and figures in a Section should be placed in the immediate vicinity of the reference where they are cited.

* Footnotes should be used sparingly. They should be typed single space and placed directly underneath in the very same page, which refers to the material they annotate.

Appendices 

Appendices are provided to give supplementary information, which if included in the main text may serve as a distraction and cloud the central theme under discussion.

Appendices should be numbered using Arabic numerals, e.g. Appendix 1, Appendix 2, etc.

Appendices, Tables and references appearing in appendices should be numbered and referred to at appropriate places just as in the case of Sections.

Appendices shall carry the title of the work reported and the same title shall be made in the contents page also.

List of References

Any work of other researchers, if used either directly or indirectly, the origin of the material thus referred to at appropriate places in thesis report should be indicated. Follow APA 6^th  Style for referencing.

APA GENERAL GUIDELINES:

Use white 8 ½  x 11” paper.

Make 1 inch margins on the top, bottom, and sides

The first word in every paragraph should be indented one half inch.

APA recommends using Times New Roman font, size 12.

Double space the entire research paper

Include a page header known as the “running head” at the top of every page. (To make this process easier, set your word processor to automatically add these components onto each page)

To create the running head/page header, insert page numbers justified to the right-hand side of the paper (do not put p. or pg. in front of page numbers)

Then type “TITLE OF YOUR PAPER” justified to the left using all capital letters

If your title is long, this running head title should be a shortened version of the title of your entire paper.
