FYP Report Structure and Content

Every FYP is unique. The goal may be to solve a problem, improve an old system, combine two or more concepts, create a game, experiment with various algorithms, etc. The type of FYP you choose will affect your reports' structure and content.

Below is a standard outline for each of the three FYP reports. If you want to add extra sections, that's probably OK, but if you want to skip any sections, you may lose points on your grade.  If you feel strongly that you do not need one or more sections, then you should probably discuss this with your advisor, since he will be grading your work.
