Following the table of contents and lists of figures,
tables, and abbreviations if any, use a \signaturepage command to generate the page
where the members of your committee will sign the final
thesis. This page does not count for page numbering,
and displays no page number.
This page will contain, in order:
The text “This dissertation is accepted on behalf of the faculty of the Institute by the following committee:”
A signature line for your chair or co-chairs,
displaying below it the names given in your \chair or \cochairs command
in the preamble.
Additional signature lines for the balance of your
committee. The total number of signature lines
depends on whether you used \chair or
\cochairs commands in the preamble,
and on the value of the \committeesize
preamble command.
For example, if you used a \chair
command and \committeesize{4}, there
will be three additional signature lines after the
one for your chair.
For another example, if you have co-chairs and used
\committeesize{4}, there will be
three signature lines. Both co-chairs sign on the
first line and the other two committee members on
the second and third.
At the bottom of the page, another signature line for you to sign and date the thesis.
