What your department type means for your Bayero University, Kano report
These notes are general guidance by discipline, matched to the departments listed for Bayero University, Kano. They are not Bayero University, Kano rules; your supervisor’s and department’s instructions always take priority.
Health and medical sciences
25 departments listed: Environmental Health Science, Medical Laboratory Science, Medical Radiography, Nursing and others.
Health-related departments often work under clinical or community placement arrangements of their own and follow a structured health-research format, with ethical approval where human participants are involved. Ask your department what applies to your programme.
APA and Vancouver are both used in health programmes; confirm which your department expects. Related reading: seminar topics for nursing and public health students and validity and reliability of questionnaires.
Natural and physical sciences
14 departments listed: Biochemistry, Chemical Pathology, Oral Diagnostic Science, Environmental Management 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.
Arts, humanities and law
11 departments listed: Arabic, English and Literary Studies, History, Islamic Studies and Sharia 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.
Management and social sciences
9 departments listed: Natural resource management, Mass Communication, Geography, Accounting 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.
