Hagenberg Thesis Document Collection (LaTeX)
What You Find Here
This is a collection of modern LaTeX classes, style files, and example documents for authoring Bachelor, Master or Diploma theses and related academic manuscripts in English and German. Pre-configured English and German documents are available, easy to use even for LaTeX beginners, and compatible with LaTeX distributions for Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. The document classes are immediately usable and convenient to customize.
The main document 'HgbThesisTutorial' serves both as a template and tutorial for authoring a Bachelor, Master or Diploma thesis with LaTeX. Developed initially as an internal standard at the Upper Austria University of Applied Sciences in Hagenberg, this setup has become popular at several other (mostly German-speaking) institutions over the last years.
This site is the main repository for the hagenberg-thesis package, which is also available on CTAN and shared by popular package repositories such as MikTeX and TexLive. Note that the most recent versions are always found here, while only periodic releases are submitted to CTAN.

Additional Features
The hagenberg-thesis classes and styles try to provide as much functionality out-of-the-box as possible while still being easy to use. Additional functionality that did not permanently find its way into the files is documented in the wiki for this repository.
