Why MS Word matters for BSIT students
Every BSIT and BSCS capstone ends in a Chapter 1-5 written document — and that document is built in MS Word (or compatible alternatives). A well-formatted document with proper headers, automatic table of contents, citations, and consistent styling signals professionalism to your panel. Bad formatting (inconsistent fonts, manual numbering, broken page breaks) suggests rushed work and gets called out in defense.
Capstone-specific MS Word workflows
- Heading styles — use Heading 1/2/3 for chapter and section structure (enables auto TOC)
- Page numbering — Roman numerals for preliminary pages, Arabic for main chapters
- Bibliography manager — use References tab to manage citations (APA/MLA format)
- Table of figures and tables — auto-generated from caption-labeled images and tables
- Track changes — accept/reject your adviser’s comments without losing history
- Print to PDF — final submission format for most schools
