Project plan demonstrates highly proficient engineering rationality and systems thinking. Progress statement demonstrates professional project management skills including time management and mitigation of uncertainties and risks. The report demonstrates highly proficient engineering problem-solving competencies and systems thinking. The report presents original knowledge that has the potential to be applied to real engineering contexts. Language use is highly appropriate and professional. The report communicates its intentions with clarity. The report is extremely well presented and organised. Accurately referenced throughout.

Distinction

(75-84%) A superior report that provides the reader with a solid understanding of each of the components.

The report resembles a professional project report for an engineering R&D or a scholarly research project. The report presents substantial research work justified by scholarly acknowledged research methodology. Project plan demonstrates proficient engineering rationality and systems thinking. Progress statement demonstrate sufficient project management skills including time management and mitigation of uncertainties and risks.

Language use is mostly appropriate, clear and professional. The report is well presented and organised. Accurately referenced throughout with minor or occasional lapses.

Credit

(65-74%) The report provides the reader with a good understanding of each of the components.

A major part of research work presented can be justified by scholarly acknowledged research methodology. Project plan demonstrates engineering rationality and systems thinking. Progress statement demonstrate project management skills including time management and mitigation of uncertainties and risks. at the professional level. The report reflects some original thinking.

Language use is comprehensible and mostly professional with some lapses in formality or accuracy. The report is mostly well presented and organised with some areas for improvement. Limited inaccurate referencing in places.

Pass

(50-64%) The report provides the reader some understanding of each of the components.

The report presents some research in the work (eg literature study) justified by research methodology. However, the methodology might not be completely appropriate. Project plan demonstrates engineering rationality and systems thinking. Progress statement demonstrate rudimentary project management skills including time management and mitigation of uncertainties and risks. Language use is comprehensible and mostly professional with some lapses in formality or accuracy. Writing style in places may lead to vagueness of understanding for the reader. The report is presented and organised with some areas needing improvement. There has been some attempt at Referencing.

Progress ReportThe progress report will be submitted through Canvas. In some circumstances, your supervisor may request that you email them a copy of your progress report. Students are advised to confirm this requirement with their supervisors.

Document structure/layout

The progress report body text size of the characters shall be 12 point in a serif font (such as Times New Roman); the line spacing shall be 1.5 spacing.

If you are printing your report then use double-sided printing only. Provide a 40mm left hand margin for binding, and 25mm right hand margin. If you include folded pages, such as large photos fold-out charts, they must be folded at least 1cm from the right hand edge. To accommodate double sided printing, use the mirror margins option (located in page set-up in Mircrosoft Word ).

The number of pages in the report will depend to an extent on the nature of the work undertaken. Your supervisor will be able to offer relevant advice. As a guide you could expect to write approximately 40 pages for your progress report (not including appendices).

Please use the following structure. The first page will be a title page as shown in the example below.

Example Format for Final Report Title page

The second page should be a signed Statement of Originality in which you declare that you are the sole author of the report, that you have not used fragments of text from other sources without proper acknowledgment, that theories, results and designs of others that you have incorporated into your report have been appropriately referenced and all sources of assistance have been acknowledged. If your project extends work you undertook in (say) another subject then you must declare this and clearly identify the extent of this material in your report. The subject coordinator reserved the right to fail any student who does not sign a statement of originality.

The next pages should include the Contents, List of Figures, and List of Tables sections. These sections should include appropriate numbering right justified.

These pages should be followed by a Nomenclature section that lists symbols and abbreviations used in the text.

The remainder of the written report may be arranged in Chapters as follows:

Introduction: The problem is defined and the contents of each Chapter discussed briefly.

Literature Review: This Chapter includes the results of the literature survey on or related to the report topic (see References example below).

Two or three Chapters: These should appropriately describe, under suitable headings and subheadings, the main theory behind the work done, any experimental or other results already done, techniques and equipment used. In particular, aspects which demonstrate the quality of the work done should be emphasised (e.g. how problems were overcome, the theoretical model of the problem tackled). There should also be a chapter detailing what tasks remain to be undertaken in the following subject to complete the project, including a gantt chart or similar showing a timeline for completion.References: Others works that have been used for information should be listed. They should be listed alphabetically by author. The Faculty uses the Harvard or author/date referencing style. UTS Library has a clear guide to this style at:
