How to Write a SIWES Report for UNIMED

SIWES and IT report structure, formatting, and chapter breakdown expected at UNIMED -- built from your real placement and logbook, formatted to submission-ready.

Typical SIWES report structure

The common Nigerian-university SIWES/IT report shape. UniDraft adjusts this to your department’s specific requirements when they’re on file.

  • Chapter 1Introduction & organization profile
  • Chapter 2Industrial training experience & duties
  • Chapter 3Technical / theoretical knowledge gained
  • Chapter 4Challenges & problems encountered
  • Chapter 5Conclusion & recommendations

    General Nigerian university convention -- until your exact department template is added, UniDraft applies your supervisor’s and department’s specific instructions on top of this baseline.

SIWES by department type at UNIMED

UNIMED has 21 departments in UniDraft’s catalog. These are general notes for each type of department, not UNIMED rules; your SIWES unit and supervisor decide.

Health and medical sciences

10 departments listed: Anatomy, Physiology, Community Medicine, Internal Medicine and others.

Logbook: Record the units or wards you rotated through and the duties you were allowed to perform under supervision, without including any patient-identifying details.

Report: Describe the placement, your supervised duties and what you learnt, and confirm with your department how clinical or community placements are reported.

Natural and physical sciences

5 departments listed: Biochemistry, Biosciences and Biotechnology, Chemistry, Microbiology and others.

Logbook: Record the laboratory or field procedures you carried out, the samples or instruments involved, and the safety rules you followed, in your own words.

Report: Describe each procedure with its purpose and your observations, and format units, formulas and species names carefully.

Related reading: formatting chemical formulas and species names and choosing a statistical test.

Agriculture and food sciences

Department listed: Food Science.

Logbook: Keep dated records of farm, laboratory or agency tasks: crops or animals handled, inputs used, observations and quantities.

Report: Structure the technical chapter around the enterprises or processes you worked on, with the quantities and results you personally recorded.

Computing and information technology

Department listed: Mathematical and Computer Sciences.

Logbook: Name the systems, languages, tools and tickets you actually handled each week, and what you personally did on them (debugging, testing, deploying, support), rather than writing "learnt programming".

Report: The technical chapter works best as a description of one or two real tasks, with the tools used and the problem each solved, ideally with screenshots or diagrams you are allowed to share.

Frequently asked questions

What chapters does a UNIMED SIWES report need?

Most Nigerian SIWES/IT reports follow a similar structure: an introduction to the organization, a chapter covering the industrial training experience and duties performed, a chapter of technical/theoretical knowledge gained, and a conclusion with recommendations -- built around your actual logbook entries, not invented ones. Your department may adjust this exact breakdown.

What formatting does UNIMED expect for a SIWES report?

UNIMED's exact SIWES 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.

Can UniDraft use my actual SIWES logbook and placement details?

Yes -- bring your real placement organization, duties, and logbook notes. UniDraft builds the report around what you actually did; it does not invent industrial training experience you didn't have.

Is this different from a final year project for UNIMED?

Yes. A SIWES/IT report documents your industrial training placement, while a final year project is an independent research report. See the general UNIMED format guide for the full project and seminar report breakdown.
