Example

Here is an example of how to use the “phdthesis” BibTeX type:

@phdthesis{mythesis,
  title        = {An Analysis of Example},
  author       = {John Smith},
  year         = 2022,
  month        = {June},
  address      = {Example City, CA},
  note         = {Available at \url{https://example.com/thesis.pdf}},
  school       = {University of Example},
  type         = {PhD thesis}
}

In this example, the BibTeX entry defines a PhD thesis authored by John Smith titled “An Analysis of Example”. The degree was awarded in 2022 by the University of Example, and the thesis was submitted in June in Example City, CA. The type of the thesis is specified as “PhD thesis”, and a note is included that provides a URL for the thesis.
