What your department type means for your FUNATO report
These notes are general guidance by discipline, matched to the departments listed for FUNATO. They are not FUNATO rules; your supervisor’s and department’s instructions always take priority.
Natural and physical sciences
10 departments listed: Environmental Management and Toxicology, Plant and Environmental Biology, Biochemistry, 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.
Agriculture and food sciences
9 departments listed: Agricultural Economics, Agricultural Extension and Rural Development, Food Science and Technology, Animal Science 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.
Engineering
5 departments listed: Agricultural and Bio-systems Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical and Electronics 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.
Arts, humanities and law
4 departments listed: English, French, History, Philosophy.
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.

What format does FUNATO require for a final year project?
FUNATO'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 FUNATO 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 FUNATO rule, so your supervisor's instructions win.
Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for FUNATO?
Yes. IT/SIWES reports, final year projects, and seminar reports are all supported. See the FUNATO SIWES guide for report-specific structure.
Is this list of faculties and departments official?
This list reflects 40 departments across 7 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for FUNATO, 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.
