Choose a topic, or an
issue, in which you are interested.
Get organised, give
yourself time to think about your project. Look at the information available -
is there enough information available for you to be able to produce a good
project?
Be wary if you are relying
upon organisations to provide you with information. They will not give you
confidential or sensitive information and you must not expect them to respond
as promptly as you would like.
Visit the Library and
spend some time looking at previous projects.
With the help of your
project supervisor agree on the aims and objectives and the structure of the
project as soon as possible.
It is worthwhile investing in some
reliable storage devices for storing your project - related documents. Keep at
least two copies (updated). Remember to virus check your storage devices.
The final printing and
binding of your project can be the most frustrating time. Allow five working
days. Numbering pages, re-arranging pagination and putting together the
Contents page takes a deal of time – do not underestimate this part of your
task. By this time you will have been working on your project for some months -
you will be bored with it; you just want to hand it in and move on to the next
assignment. So, to save your time and frustration, allow yourself five working
days for this part of the task.
Do not underestimate the
enormity of the task ahead of you. The key points are to organise your time;
make and maintain contact with your supervisor, decide upon your topic and when
you have formulated your aims, objectives and structure - get on with it!
Finally, remember to
print and keep a copy of the project report for your own use, as no copy of the
report submitted will be returned to you.
