LaTeX for advanced users (English)

LaTeX is a command based system which is known to create nice-looking and well-structured documents. In addition, the system has great support for mathematical expressions.

The University Library now offers LaTeX courses for students about to start working on a bachelor or a master thesis, and employees who want to use LaTeX for writing papers and academic texts. We have LaTeX courses both for beginners and for advanced users.

This course is an advanced course, and you will get the most out of the course if you already have some experience with LaTeX, and you know the basics. The course will cover more advanced topics you will need when writing a thesis or an academic text in LaTeX. During the course, you will learn how to use multi-panel figures, create advanced tables, and insert lists of figures and tables into your documents. We will also cover including appendices in a thesis, using abbreviations, changing the page numbering system of a document, and last but not least how to create commands with custom output.

The course is built around practical examples which will be shown in Overleaf, which every NTNU student can use freely. Overleaf is a cloud tool, and you do not need to install additional software to join the course. 

The University Library's LaTeX course is digital, and will be taught in The Virtual Library. The course will be held in English.
