What your department type means for your IUO report
These notes are general guidance by discipline, matched to the departments listed for IUO. They are not IUO rules; your supervisor’s and department’s instructions always take priority.
Health and medical sciences
8 departments listed: Anatomy, Clinical Medicine, Medical Laboratory, Medicine & Surgery 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.
Engineering
7 departments listed: Chemical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Environmental 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.
Management and social sciences
6 departments listed: Economics & Development Studies, Mass Communication, Sociology & Anthropology, 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.
Natural and physical sciences
6 departments listed: Biochemistry, Chemistry, Industrial Chemistry, Microbiology 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.

What format does IUO require for a final year project?
IUO'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 IUO 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 IUO rule, so your supervisor's instructions win.
Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for IUO?
Yes. IT/SIWES reports, final year projects, and seminar reports are all supported. See the IUO SIWES guide for report-specific structure.
Is this list of faculties and departments official?
This list reflects 36 departments across 7 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for IUO, 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.
