What your department type means for your Bowen University report
These notes are general guidance by discipline, matched to the departments listed for Bowen University. They are not Bowen University rules; your supervisor’s and department’s instructions always take priority.
Management and social sciences
10 departments listed: Communication Arts, Accounting, Banking and Finance, Business 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.
Natural and physical sciences
10 departments listed: Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Chemistry, Industrial Chemistry 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.
Health and medical sciences
8 departments listed: Anatomy, Medical Laboratory Science, Medicine and Surgery, Nursing Science 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.
Arts, humanities and law
6 departments listed: Law, English, History and Diplomatic Studies, Music 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.
