What your department type means for your AKSU report

These notes are general guidance by discipline, matched to the departments listed for AKSU. They are not AKSU rules; your supervisor’s and department’s instructions always take priority.

Natural and physical sciences

12 departments listed: Biochemistry, Botany, Genetics and Biotechnology, Marine Biology and others.

Science projects are usually laboratory, field or survey studies that report methods, results tables and statistics. Formulas, units and species names need careful formatting, and the results chapter must match what your methodology says you did.

APA is common in many science departments, but some follow another style, so confirm yours. Related reading: formatting chemical formulas and species names and choosing a statistical test.

Management and social sciences

7 departments listed: Accounting, Business Administration, Marketing, Public Administration and others.

Projects in these departments are usually survey-based studies, so the questionnaire, the sample size and the choice of statistical test become the parts supervisors examine most closely.

APA is the most common style in management and social science departments. Related reading: the accounting and business SIWES report guide and how to design a questionnaire.

Agriculture and food sciences

5 departments listed: Agricultural Economics and Extension, Animal Science, Crop Science, Fisheries and Aquaculture and others.

Agriculture projects are commonly field or farm experiments, laboratory work, or agricultural economics surveys, and industrial attachment usually places students on farms, in agencies or in agro-industry. Keep dated, specific records of what you did each week.

APA is common, but confirm your department's required style. Related reading: the agriculture SIWES report guide and calculating sample size.

Arts, humanities and law

5 departments listed: English, History and International Studies, Performing Arts, Philosophy and others.

Arts, humanities and law projects tend to be text-based, analytical or doctrinal, built on sources, cases or texts rather than measured data. The literature review often carries more of the argument than it does in a laboratory project.

Styles vary widely here: some departments use APA, others MLA or Chicago, and some law departments use OSCOLA. Confirm yours. Related reading: how to write the literature review and how to write the references list.

Frequently asked questions

What format does AKSU require for a final year project?

AKSU's exact department-level format isn't in our catalog yet, so the specifics above are the general Nigerian tertiary-institution convention (Times New Roman 12pt, 1.5 spacing, APA references). UniDraft still applies your supervisor's and department's specific instructions when you write with us.

What should AKSU students in natural and physical sciences expect from a project?

Science projects are usually laboratory, field or survey studies that report methods, results tables and statistics. Formulas, units and species names need careful formatting, and the results chapter must match what your methodology says you did. APA is common in many science departments, but some follow another style, so confirm yours. This is general guidance for the discipline, not a AKSU rule, so your supervisor's instructions win.

Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for AKSU?

Yes. IT/SIWES reports, final year projects, and seminar reports are all supported. See the AKSU SIWES guide for report-specific structure.

Is this list of faculties and departments official?

This list reflects 31 departments across 8 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for AKSU, used to route your document to the right department-level rules. If your department is missing or misspelled, you can still enter it by hand when you start a document.

How does UniDraft know my supervisor's specific instructions?

You tell it. Supervisor and department instructions always take priority over the university-wide baseline shown above -- UniDraft layers your specific rules on top before generating anything.
