Those LaTeX questions are likely easily googlable (or bingable) and found on TeX.SE. At the top of your Org document you can embed all the LaTeX code you want to generate the custom title and signature pages required by your institution. Just my 2c.

How do I do that? \clearpage command in LaTeX. -k.
