The NOVAthesis LaTeX class is a thesis template initially designed for the PhD and MSc thesis at FCT Universidade NOVA de Lisboa (FCT-NOVA), Portugal. The class provides utilities to easily set up the cover page, the front matter pages, the page headers, etc. with respect to the official guidelines of the FCT-NOVA for writing PhD dissertations.

The template is easily customizable, including the support for other institutions as well. Currently the template supports out-of-thebox (at least): 17 Chapter Styles, 7 font sets, 4 schools. If you customize this template for your institution or add new style files, please let me knwow about the thorns in the process, so that I can work a bit to smooth them. Thanks!
