GUIDELINES FOR PROJECT FILE AND PROJECT REPORT Research experience is as close to a professional problem-solving activity as anything in the curriculum. It provides exposure to research methodology and an opportunity to work closely with a faculty guide. It usually requires the use of advanced concepts, a variety of experimental techniques, and state-of-the-art instrumentation. Research is genuine exploration of the unknown that leads to new knowledge which often warrants publication. But whether or not the results of a research project are publishable, the project should be communicated in the form of a research report written by the student. Sufficient time should be allowed for satisfactory completion of reports, taking into account that initial drafts should be critically analyzed by the faculty guide and corrected by the student at each stage. PROJECT FILE The Project File may be a very useful tool for undertaking an assignment along-with a normal semester, an exploratory study, sponsored projects, a project undertaken during summer period or any other period where the researcher is not working with a company/organization. The project/ assignment may also be a part of the bigger research agenda being pursued by a faculty/ institution/ department The Project File is the principal means by which the work carried out will be assessed and therefore great care should be taken in its preparation. This file may be considered in continuous assessment. In general, the File should be comprehensive and include: A short account of the activities that were undertaken as part of the project; A statement about the extent to which the project has achieved its stated objectives; A statement about the outcomes of the evaluation and dissemination processes engaged in as part of the project; Any activities planned but not yet completed as part of the project, or as a future initiative directly resulting from the project; Any problems that have arisen and may be useful to document for future reference. PROJECT REPORT The Project Report is the final research report that the student prepares on the project assigned to him. In case of sponsored project the lay out of the project could be as prescribed by the sponsoring organization. However, in other cases the following components should be included in the project report: Title or Cover Page The title page should contain Project Title; Students Name; Programme; Year and Semester and Name of the Faculty Guide. Acknowledgement(s) Acknowledgment to any advisory or financial assistance received in the course of work may be given. It is incomplete without students signature. Abstract A good "Abstract" should be straight to the point; not too descriptive but fully informative. First paragraph should state what was accomplished with regard to the objectives. The abstract does not have to be an entire summary of the project, but rather a concise summary of the scope and results of the project. It should not exceed more than 1000 words. Table of Contents Titles and subtitles are to correspond exactly with those in the text. Introduction Here a brief introduction to the problem that is central to the project and an outline of the structure of the rest of the report should be provided. The introduction should aim to catch the imagination of the reader, so excessive details should be avoided. Materials and Methods This section should aim at experimental designs, materials used (wherever applicable). Methodology should be mentioned in details including modifications undertaken, if any. It includes organization site(s), sample, instruments used with its validation, procedures followed and precautions. Results and Discussion Present results, discuss and compare these with those from other workers, etc. In writing this section, emphasis should be laid on what has been performed and achieved in the course of the work, rather than discuss in detail

what is readily available in text books. Avoid abrupt changes in contents from section to section and maintain a lucid flow throughout the thesis. An opening and closing paragraph in every chapter could be included to aid in smooth flow. Note that in writing the various secions, all figures and tables should as far as possible be next to the associated text, in the same orientation as the main text, numbered, and given appropriate titles or captions. All major equations should also be numbered and unless it is really necessary, do not write in point form. While presenting the results, write at length about the the various statistical tools used in the data interpretation. The result interpretation should be simple but full of data and statistical analysis. This data interpretation should be in congruence with the written objectives and the inferences should be drawn on data and not on impression. Avoid writing straight forward conclusion rather, it should lead to generalization of data on the chosen sample. Results and its discussion should be supporting/contradicting with the previous research work in the given area. Usually one should not use more than two researches in either case of supporing or contradicting the present case of research. Conclusion(s) & Recommendations A conclusion should be the final section in which the outcome of the work is mentioned briefly. Check that your work answers the following questions: Did the research project meet its aims (check back to introduction for stated aims)? What are the main findings of the research? Are there any recommendations? Do you have any conclusion on the research process itself? Implications for Future Research This should bring out further prospects for the study either thrown open by the present work or with the purpose of making it more comprehensive. Appendices The Appendices contain material which is of interest to the reader but not an integral part of the thesis and any problem that have arisen that may be useful to document for future reference. References References should include papers, books etc. referred to in the body of the report. These should be written in the alphabetical order of the author's surname. The titles of journals preferably should not be abbreviated; if they are, abbreviations must comply with an internationally recognised system. Examples

ASSESSMENT OF THE PROJECT FILE AND THE PROJECT REPORT Essentially, the assessment will be based on the quality of the report, the technical merit of the project and the project execution. Technical merit attempts to assess the quality and depth of the intellectual efforts put into the project. Project execution is concerned with assessing how much work has been put in. The Project should fulfill the following assessment objectives Range of Research Methods used to obtain information Execution of Research Data Analysis (Analyze Quantitative/ Qualitative information) Quality Control Conclusions

Assessment Scheme:
Continuous Evaluation: 40% (Based on punctuality, regularity of work, adherence to plan and methodology, refinements/ mid-course corrections etc. as reflected in the Project File.) Final Evaluation: 60% (Based on the Documentation in the file, Final report layout, analysis and results, achievement of objectives, presentation/ viva)

Credit Units: 30

The aim of the dissertation is to provide you with an opportunity to further your intellectual and personal development in your chosen field by undertaking a significant practical unit of activity, having an educational value at a level commensurate with the award of your degree The dissertation can be defined as a scholarly inquiry into a problem or issues, involving a systematic approach to gathering and analysis of information / data, leading to production of a structured report.

Selecting the Dissertation Topic


It is usual to give you some discretion in the choice of topic for the dissertation and the approach to be adopted. You will need to ensure that your dissertation is related to your field of specialization. Deciding this is often the most difficult part of the dissertation process, and perhaps, you have been thinking of a topic for some time. It is important to distinguish here between dissertation topic and dissertation title. The topic is the specific area that you wish to investigate. The title may not be decided until the dissertation has been written so as to reflect its content properly. Few restrictions are placed on the choice of the topic. Normally we would expect it to be: relevant to business, defined broadly; related to one or more of the subjects or areas of study within the core program and specialisation stream; clearly focused so as to facilitate an in-depth approach, subject to the availability of adequate sources of information and to your own knowledge; of value and interest to you and your personal and professional development.

Planning the Dissertation


This will entail following: Selecting a topic for investigation. Establishing the precise focus of your study by deciding on the aims and objectives of the dissertation, or formulating questions to be investigated. Consider very carefully what is worth investigating and its feasibility. Drawing up initial dissertation outlines considering the aims and objectives of the dissertation. Workout various stages of dissertation Devising a timetable to ensure that all stages of dissertation are completed in time. The timetable should include writing of the dissertation and regular meetings with your dissertation guide. The Dissertation plan or outline It is recommended that you should have a dissertation plan to guide you right from the outset. Essentially, the dissertation plan is an outline of what you intend to do, chapter wise and therefore should reflect the aims and objectives of your dissertation. There are several reasons for having a dissertation plan It provides a focus to your thoughts. It provides your faculty-guide with an opportunity, at an early stage of your work, to make constructive comments and help guide the direction of your research. The writing of a plan is the first formal stage of the writing process, and therefore helps build up your confidence. In many ways, the plan encourages you to come to terms with the reading, thinking and writing in a systematic and integrated way, with plenty of time left for changes. Finally, the dissertation plan generally provides a revision point in the development of your dissertation report in order to allow appropriate changes in the scope and even direction of your work as it progresses.

Keeping records
This includes the following:

Making a note of everything you read; including those discarded. Ensuring that when recording sources, authors name and initials, date of publication, title, place of publication and publisher are included. (You may consider starting a card index or database from the outset). Making an accurate note of all quotations at the time you read them. Make clear what is a direct a direct quotation and what is your paraphrase.

Dissertation format
All students must follow the following rules in submitting their dissertation. Front page should provide title, author, Name of degree/diploma and the date of submission. Second page should be the table of contents giving page references for each chapter and section. The next page should be the table of appendices, graphs and tables giving titles and page references. Next to follow should be a synopsis or abstract of the dissertation (approximately 500 words) Next is the acknowledgements. Chapter I should be a general introduction, giving the background to the dissertation, the objectives of the dissertation, the rationale for the dissertation, the plan, methodological issues and problems. The limitations of the dissertation should also be hinted in this chapter. Other chapters will constitute the body of the dissertation. The number of chapters and their sequence will usually vary depending on, among others, on a critical review of the previous relevant work relating to your major findings, a discussion of their implications, and conclusions, possibly with a suggestion of the direction of future research on the area. After this concluding chapter, you should give a list of all the references you have used. These should be cross - references with your text. For articles from journals, the following details are required e.g. Draper P and Pandyal K. 1991, The Investment Trust Discount Revisited, Journal of Business Finance and Accounting, Vol18, No6, Nov, pp 791-832. For books, the following details are required: Levi, M. 1996, International Financial Management, Prentice Hall, New York, 3rd Ed, 1996 Finally, you should give any appendices. These should only include relevant statistical data or material that cannot be fitted into the above categories.

The Layout Guidelines for the Dissertation
