What your department type means for your EDSU report

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

Management and social sciences

9 departments listed: Mass Communication, 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.

Engineering

7 departments listed: Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical/Electronic Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and others.

Engineering projects typically centre on design, construction or analysis, backed by calculations, drawings or test results. Whether SIWES is compulsory depends on your programme and institution, so confirm it with your SIWES unit; logbook entries should record specific tasks, equipment, measurements and safety practice.

Engineering departments often prefer a numbered style such as IEEE, but check your own department's guideline. Related reading: engineering SIWES logbook examples and the civil engineering SIWES report guide and the electrical and electronic engineering SIWES report guide.

Natural and physical sciences

7 departments listed: Biochemistry, Political Science, Industrial Chemistry, Mathematics 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

6 departments listed: Medical Laboratory Science, Nursing, Anatomy, Physiology 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.

Frequently asked questions

What format does EDSU require for a final year project?

EDSU'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 EDSU students in management and social sciences expect from a project?

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. This is general guidance for the discipline, not a EDSU rule, so your supervisor's instructions win.

Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for EDSU?

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

Is this list of faculties and departments official?

This list reflects 39 departments across 8 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for EDSU, 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.
