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?
I would like it as something like in this picture below:

Thanks!

That is very bad typographical practice.

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.

This is a quick way using sectsty
documentclass{book}
usepackage{sectsty}
sectionfont{underlinenormalfontnormalsizecentering}
usepackage{lipsum}
begin{document}
chapter{This is a chapter}
section{This is your section}
lipsum[1]
end{document}

Great, that's sweet! Thanks! Similar to this (sectsty), what package can edit chapter titles?

titlesec, or you can even edit it manually by redefiningchapter.
