5.13 Appendices

Appendices in a thesis are usually at the end of the document, but before the bibliography. The class implements this with two environments: {appendix} for a single appendix and {appendices} for multiple appendices. If your thesis organization requires appendices per-chapter, you must use the [chapterapp] class option. In either case, the code for appendices is identical, i.e., each appendix is introduced with the \chapter command.

5.13.1 Single appendix

If you have a single appendix, your code should look like this:

\begin{appendix} 
\chapter{Your appendix title} 
Appendix text goes here 
\end{appendix}

5.13.2 Multiple appendices

If you have more than one appendix, your code should look like this:

\begin{appendices} 
\chapter{Your first appendix title} 
Appendix text goes here 
\chapter{Your second appendix title} 
Appendix text goes here 
\end{appendices}

5.13.3 Appendices per chapter

If you need to add an appendix or appendices to a chapter, you must use the [chapterapp] class option. The code for the appendices themselves is exactly as described above. This means that the appendix itself is introduced by the \chapter command, not a \section command (because this seems to be how the thesis office wants things to look). Furthermore, per-chapter appendices should not be preceded by the \backmatter command, which should not be used at all.
