In the above structure, the first nine pages are known as preliminary pages, and are
usually numbered with the Roman numerals as I, II, III, IV, and so on, except the
title page.

All the contents of the project report should be in ‘Times New Romans’ font, and
the size should be 12 throughout. All the text should be left with the ‘justified’
option with line spacing of 1.5, but for the Captions single spacing should be
opted. The length of the overall document should be around 70 to 100 pages for it
to be an effective project report.

Typical Format of the Project Report

Title page Format

The title page should not contain page numbers. The other aspects of the title page
like the title should be like a report, and should contain the name of the
organization to which the project is intended to be submitted.

Next, the course name should be followed by the student’s name, his roll number
and at the end of the title page, organization’s logo and address should be written.

Acknowledgement

The acknowledgement page depicts the gratitude, respect and thankfulness of the
student towards the people who helped him in pursuing the project successfully
and ensured successful completion and implementation of the project. In this page,
the author expresses his gratitude and concern by using praising and thanksgiving
words.

Abstract

Abstract represents a summarized report of the complete project in a very concise

and informative format covering main objective and aim of the project, the
background information, processes and methods used, and methodologies
implemented, followed with a brief conclusion of two to three lines talking about
the results and scope of the project.

The entire abstract of a project report should be written in about one or two page
and therefore, should not exceed any further.

Table of Contents, List of Figures and Tables

Table of contents provides a complete sketch of the title, subtitles, headings, topics
and the project elements that are involved in those headings. In other words,
different sections and their titles are included here.

The whole project report in a nutshell is made known in the table of contents
section, and therefore, it should include the titles of the first, second and third level
headers, and must give a clear picture of the report to the reader.

Similarly, a list of figures and tables helps the reader to locate diagrams, charts and
tables in the document, and therefore, it should be numbered accordingly by
chapter and page number. It is not necessary to indicate page numbers for symbols
and abbreviations used in the document.

The Main Body of the Project

The main body of the project should comprise several chapters with the
corresponding titles, and each page within these chapters must be numbered in
numerals as page numbers. The usual way of presenting these chapters is given
below.

Chapter 1: Introduction chapter. This chapter should contain brief background

information about the project and the outlines of the results and future scope of the
project. It rarely contains drawings and graphical illustrations.

Chapter 2: Chapter of Literature Review. It evaluates the current work with the
previous one. It depicts the current implementations that overcome the previous
problems and limitations of the project, and draws the attention and focus on the
foreknowledge work that would be conducted based on the ongoing work at
present. It must be clear and simple to understand.

Chapter 3-4 or 5: These chapters describe the overall in-depth information about
the project. These chapters also involve the basic theoretical information about
each and every component & aspect of the project, such as circuit design,
simulation implementation and modeling, software implementation, statistical
analysis and calculations done, results gained, and so on.

The appropriate information should always be accompanied with pictorial

representations, tabular demonstrations, diagrams, flow charts, visible graphs,
Images, photos other representations and depictions of the project, along with
simulation results with good resolution and clarity.

Conclusion and Recommendations

The conclusion and recommendations part summarizes the whole report by

highlighting all the chapters and their significance and the importance of the
project and about the achievements.

The Recommendations are interlinked with conclusion. The conclusion drawn

from the project report can be further implemented in the recommendation section
to overcome the constraints of the project.

Referencing and Appendices

The project report must be considered as a very standard report, and therefore, it
should follow all rules, guidelines and protocols of gathering and presenting
information, and implementing that and drawing conclusions out of it.
All these activities require appropriate and authentic sources of information and
that particular information must be referenced or cited according to the copyrights
and other guidelines. Therefore, to make the report original, it should be free from
plagiarism and must follow standard citations and guidelines of citations to
represent the reference names.

The appendices of a project report should be written in Times New Roman format
of font size 10, and it should contain the information which is appropriate and
added to the main text like Embedded C program code, raw data, and so on.

These are the exceptional and very informative guidelines about drafting a project
report along with a very simple, user-friendly project report format for those
students who are earnestly seeking project report format.

We believe that we have been successful in giving enough information about this
article to you.
