What your department type means for your MTU report

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

Health and medical sciences

5 departments listed: Biomedical Technology, Medical Laboratory Science, Nursing Science, Nutrition and Dietetics 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

5 departments listed: Biochemistry, Biological Sciences, Chemical Sciences, Geosciences 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.

Arts, humanities and law

4 departments listed: Fine and Applied Arts, Languages, Music, Philosophy and Religion Studies.

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.

Management and social sciences

4 departments listed: Accounting and Finance, Business Administration, Economics, Mass Communication.

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.

Frequently asked questions

What format does MTU require for a final year project?

MTU'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 MTU 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 MTU rule, so your supervisor's instructions win.

Does UniDraft support SIWES/IT reports for MTU?

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

Is this list of faculties and departments official?

This list reflects 20 departments across 3 faculties in UniDraft's catalog for MTU, 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.
