How to do this will depend on the requirements of the style you're following

And regardless of the required style, Word will not format the text of the
references for you and this is not an appropriate place to ask how to format them. There are plenty of online guides, and Word comes with templates that give basic models for some styles. Word will let you set up a Bibliography style that easily handles the standard of single-spaced entry with double spacing between entries. For a dissertation, it's probably worth buying bibliographic management software.
