Requirements

In order to run it properly, you must have the following available

• MikTex 2.9
• A LaTeX editor, e.g., TeXstudio, Texmaker, TeXnic, or TeXworks.
• The template ConcordiaThesis.tex and the style file ConcordiaU.sty.
• Internet connection if you are running it at your first time. You may need to download necessary package(s).

Troubleshooting

• The template has been tested with TeXstudio, TeXworks, CTex, and TeXnic under MikTex 2.9, with UTF-8 encoding. If you notice anything in the Thesis Specifications that does not match the templates, please let me know. I will make my effort to keep it up to date.

FAQ

• Q: Why I am getting question marks ? for the citations, and references are not shown anymore?

A: Please (1). Make sure your bibliography file (.bib) is in the folder and each item is configured correctly (pay attention to , and }. (2). Run in this sequence: pdfLaTex --> bibTex --> pdfLaTex. It may help.
