What your department type means for your FUMMSA report

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

Health and medical sciences

17 departments listed: Health Information Management, Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Information Technology and Health Informatics, Nursing Sciences 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

6 departments listed: Chemical Pathology, Biochemistry, Biology, 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.

Frequently asked questions

What format does FUMMSA require for a final year project?

FUMMSA'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 FUMMSA students in health and medical sciences expect from a project?

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

Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for FUMMSA?

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

Is this list of faculties and departments official?

This list reflects 31 departments across 7 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for FUMMSA, 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.
