Assuming you are using LaTeX (doesn't everyone?)
the doublespace style allows you to return to singlespace with
\begin{singlespace} ... \end{singlespace} .

Incidentally, why do universities insist on double-spaced theses?
If their examiners suffer from failing eyesight,
wouldn't it be better to require Large Print?
