I want to have a black color underline as shown below:

enter image description here

My MWE seemed a bit long:

\documentclass[12pt,oneside]{book}  % Remove draft option to show figures (for final draft), otherwise keep for faster production

\usepackage{uorthesis}  % Loads the LaTeX style package
\usepackage[backend=biber, style=authoryear, dashed=false]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{references.bib}
\usepackage{uorbib}


\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\chapter}[block]
  {\normalfont\sffamily\LARGE\bfseries\filcenter}
  {\filcenter\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter\filcenter\}{20pt}{\huge}


% Put custom packages to be loaded here
% \usepackage{linguex}  % For linguistic examples
% \usepackage{tikz}     % For drawing


\begin{document}


% Title page
\include{structure/title}


% All subsequent pages must be numbered, title page is considered page i,
% front matter is numbered in lowercase Roman numerals
\pagestyle{fancy}
\pagenumbering{roman}
\setcounter{page}{2}
\doublespacing


% Dedication (optional)
\include{structure/dedication}


% Acknowledgments
\include{structure/acknowledgements}


% Abstract
\include{structure/abstract}


% Table of Contents, List of Tables, List of Figures
\tableofcontents


%List of Tables & Figures
\include{structure/tablesfigures}


%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% DISSERTATION CONTENT %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%


% Regular numbering starts now, first page of first chapter is page 1
\clearpage
\setcounter{page}{0}
\pagenumbering{arabic}


% Body


\include{chapters/01-introduction}


\include{chapters/02-background}


\include{chapters/03-chapter}


\include{chapters/04-chapter}


% References
\clearpage
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bibliography}
\markboth{\MakeUppercase{Bibliography}}{}
\singlespacing
\printbibliography


\appendix
\include{chapters/99-appendix}


\end{document}

However, I think the main code is:

\usepackage{titlesec}
\titleformat{\chapter}[block]
  {\normalfont\sffamily\LARGE\bfseries\filcenter}
  {\filcenter\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter\filcenter\\}{20pt}{\huge}

    Do you want to underline the last line of the title or do you want to draw a line between the title and the following text? – henryflower Aug 28 '20 at 16:33
  • @henryflower I want to draw a line between the title and following text. Sorry that my question is not clear enough – aan Aug 29 '20 at 02:10
  • Please provide a minimal working example (MWE) that allows others can compile. Where did you get the files uorthesis.sty and uorbib.sty from? Also, please replace all \include{...} commands with some dummy text. – leandriis Aug 29 '20 at 08:33

    Probably \titleformat{\chapter}[block] {\normalfont\sffamily\LARGE\bfseries\filcenter} {\filcenter\chaptertitlename\ \thechapter\filcenter\\}{20pt}{\huge}[{\titlerule[1pt]}] results in the desired output? (See also: Add a rule after chapter title using titlesec) – leandriis Aug 29 '20 at 08:37
  • @leandriis. Thanks. It worked. Brillant. Can you have a look at similar template https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/560388/how-to-change-a-page-layout-in-a-overleaf-template – aan Aug 29 '20 at 12:57

    Since the suggestion to use titlerule from my previous comment as well as from the answer of the question I linked to, seems to have solved your question, I have voted to close your question as a duplicate to the other one. Add a rule after chapter title using titlesec – leandriis Aug 29 '20 at 13:08
  • @leandriis, yes, it answer and your suggestion above worked well too. Between, another similar template, where I want to adjust the page size https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/560388/how-to-change-a-page-layout-in-a-overleaf-template – aan Aug 29 '20 at 13:11
