Signature Page

The signature page serves to document signed approval of the thesis/dissertation by all committee members, the department head, college dean, and graduate college dean. This page follows a very precise format and wording; students should view the sample signature page within the Thesis and Dissertation Guidelines and download one of our Microsoft Word templates below to replicate accordingly.

Signature Page Formatting Approval (Required before the defense)

A draft of the signature page must be submitted in PDF or Word format to graduatewriting@skyupiradio.com for formatting approval prior to obtaining committee signatures.

  • We recommend that students submit their signature page draft for formatting review a minimum of two weeks prior to their defense date.
  • The signature page is routed electronically by the Graduate College; students should not obtain the signatures on the signature page. For more information, visit: /graduate/degree-completion/thesis-dissertation/index.php.
