Is there a good way by specifying it in the preamble, to underline my section titles (not chapter titles), instead of having to do chapter{underline{Section Title}} for all chapter titles in the body?

  • Oo, sorry, I totally switched chapter and section. I meant this one is for the section title, not chapter title. I need to make it that way because of the thesis formatting requirements.

  • Thnks, @JouleV, but I could not find how you can underline it and middle align it. I'm new to Latex actually.
