Project Report
Each student is required to submit a comprehensive report about the major project. The
report should be in the format as described below. It is important that you adhere to these
guidelines.
The report should document an engineering approach to the solution of the practical,
problem-solving approach that you have addressed. The reader should become convinced
that you have solved the problem in a methodical and professional manner, making due
reference to appropriate techniques, technologies and professional standards.
ou should also include the details from your project notebook, in which you would have
been recording the progress of your project throughout the semester. These details may
refer to supervision meetings, technical problems encountered, changes of direction and
so on.
The report should contain enough detail to enable the e!aminers to assess your work, but
not so much detail as to make it lengthy and tedious to read. "ey points should be
highlighted in the body of the report, with details often relegated to appendices.
1. General Structure
Irrespective of which project you are undertaking, the aim of the project is for you
to demonstrate practical and documentary competence. The report must be
wordprocessed on !" pa#es and must be hard bond$ blac% b&nd&n# and te't

the department.
$hilst it is e!pected that your report will vary according to your project the
general structure may be of some assistance. It is emphasi%ed however that the
structure given below is only a suggestion and you should feel free to depart from
it - if in doubt consult your respective I&' (ajor )roject. *pelling checkers and
grammar checkers should be used as appropriate. The sequence in which the

a clear statement of the requirements of your work. )resent a general
discussion of your approach to solving the project problem.
4. System Design
In this section you should e!plain how you tackled problem arriving at
you and solution to the problem .The way how you went about
designing the various aspects of the system. ou should include here
reference to the design method used, any problems that arose and how
you got around such problems.
ou should describe detailed design decisions and any trade-offs that
were necessary, and include reference to the selection of algorithms,
)rocessing Environment+ <&$, *&$, data structures, implementation
language and the use of development tools, together with justifications
of decisions made.

!. "onclusions and future scope
In this section you should summaries how successful you were in
achieving the original aims of the project, indicate problems which
arose in the course of the project which could not be solved in the
available time, and suggest any enhancements that could be made in the
future to improve the work.
