Frequently asked questions

What chapters does a University of Ilorin 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 University of Ilorin expect for a SIWES report?

University of Ilorin'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 University of Ilorin?

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