So the best binding option kinda depends on what your university ask for, but also if you understand the various
thesis binding types you can pick the most fitting finish. A hardcover binding usually gives you that sturdier feel and it is often chosen for the final library copies. Softcover, or even perfect binding, is more of a practical option if you’re working with drafts , or if it’s more personal copies. Then there are spiral and comb binding, those are pretty handy for review versions because the pages can lie flat, which makes checking easier. Also before you print, you should really double check the rules from your institution, like cover color, what goes on the spine text , margins, and paper specifications. In your case which binding format did your university require for the final submission?
