Abstract
This is short summary of the project giving all its important aspects and
achievement and should not exceed 200 words.
Table of Contents
This should list the
main chapters and (sub) sections of your report. Choose self-explanatory
chapter and section titles and use double spacing for clarity. Should include
page numbers indicating where each chapter/section begins. Try to avoid too
many levels of subheading - three is sufficient.

Chapter 1
Introduction
This is
one of the most important chapters of the report. It should begin with a clear
statement of what the project is about so that the nature and scope of the
project can be understood by any reader. It should summarise everything you set
out to achieve, provide a clear summary of the project's background, relevance
and main contributions. The introduction should set the context for the project
and should provide the reader with a summary of the key things to look out for
in the remainder of the report. When detailing the contributions it is helpful
to provide pointers to the section(s) of the report that provide the relevant
technical details.
The
introduction itself should be largely non-technical. It is useful to state the
main objectives of the project as part of the introduction. It should have the
following headings:
·
Project Background/Overview
·
Problem Description
·
Project Objectives
·
Project Scope
Chapter 2
Literature Review
Literature review is a systematic method of identifying,
evaluating and interpreting the work (similar to yours) produced by others. This
chapter should set the project into context and give the proposed layout for
achieving the project goals. It is an important chapter especially if the
project involves significant amount of ground work. Review prior work critically,
identify gaps in knowledge/areas of application and build an argument for your
own work.
When referring to other pieces of work, cite the sources
where they are referred to or used, rather than just listing them at the end.
Chapter 3
Proposed Methodology
In this
chapter, first describe the existing system, its limitations or drawbacks and
then explain how the new or proposed system will overcome these problems. This
should then be followed by complete requirements specification for the proposed
system. In addition also describe non-functional requirements.
Non-functional
requirements impose constraints on the design or implementation (such as
performance engineering requirements, quality standards, or design
constraints). Should have the following headings:
·
Existing System
·
Proposed System
·
Requirement
Specifications

References
This consists of a list of all the books, articles, manuals
etc. used in the project and referred to in the report. You should provide
enough information to allow the reader to find the source. In the case of a text
book you should quote the name of the publisher as well as the author(s). A
weakness of many reports is inadequate citation of a source of information.
Each entry in the bibliography should list the author(s) and title of the piece
of work and should give full details of where it can be found. The references
should be properly numbered and correctly used in the text.
Reference text should be written in quotes and indented and
the references marked in [square brackets]. “Reference material”[1].
The Reference section should be in the following format:
·
Book: Author Last
Name, Author First Name. “Title of Book”. City: Publisher, Copyright Date. Page

which if included in the main text may serve as a distraction and cloud the
central theme.
•
Appendices should be
numbered using alphabets, e.g. Appendix A, Appendix B, etc.
•
Tables and References
appearing in appendices should be numbered and referred to at appropriate
places just as in the case of chapters.
•
Appendices shall carry
the title of the work reported and the same title shall be written in the
contents page.

Report Formatting Details
Major Heading
Major heading’s font Size should be 16 Bold.
1.1 Minor Heading 1
Minor heading’s font size should be 14 Bold.
Size for text should be 12 only and should be justified. Each page should
have a footnote giving the title of the project only. In case of long titles
shorter versions should be used. There should be a line over the footnote.
Use Times New Roman font. Line spacing should be 1.5.
1.1.1
Sub
Heading
References are to be placed in square brackets and interlaced in the
text. “Example: The boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius [12].”
This implies that the information being given in the statement has been
recorded from the book or journal article given in serial 12 in the references
list given at the end of the report. It is scientifically and ethically correct
to record all the references. A project thesis will not be accepted without
references.
1.1.2
Sub
Heading
1.2
Minor
Heading 2
Each figure shall be numbered as for example, “Figure 2.3” which would
imply that it is the third figure of chapter 2. It shall be placed as normal
text with figure number and title at the bottom of the page or sideways with
figure title coming on the opening side of the paper and not on the binding
side. The same format shall be used for tables.
