Description of sections
Introduction. The introduction contains the following main points:
- Main idea
- The relevance of the chosen idea, its theoretical and/or practical significance
- An explanation of how, by what methods, and in what order the author intends to solve the issues
- An announcement of the structure of the work (the title of the chapters of work and their brief descriptions)
- Characteristic of the main sources of information
The introduction should be short (no more than two-three pages) and clear. It should be made clear from the introduction what the work (the purpose of the work) is devoted to, what tasks and by what methods are solved in it, and what results should be achieved.
The main part of the work is the main content.
The essence of practical research is revealed in this part, that is, the entire course of the search and evidence of the correctness of decisions are carefully prescribed. The main goal of this part of the work is to answer the question expressed in the Final Project. Each chapter of the work should be concluded with brief conclusions.
Conclusion. In conclusion, it is necessary to clearly formulate the results obtained during the implementation of the FP and the main conclusions to which the author has come. Conclusions should be concise and organically drawn from the content of the work.
Applications are not an obligatory element of the FP structure. It is advisable to introduce applications when the author uses a relatively large number of cumbersome tables, statistical material, and computer program listings. Such material, placed in the main part, would make it difficult to read the work.
Requirements for Registration
- The FINAL PROJECT text is prepared using computer-assisted document preparation. It is preferable to use the Microsoft Word (Windows) or Pages (Mac OS) text editor standards.
- The work is submitted in an electronic format, A4 format with portrait or landscape orientation.
- Recommended document field sizes: upper - 2 cm, lower - 2 cm, left - 3 cm, right - 1,5 cm. Line spacing - 1,15. Indent paragraph - 1.25 cm.
- Font guidelines - Times New Roman, Tahoma, Calibri.
- Work pages (including applications) must have end-to-end numbering. The first page is the title page, on which the page number is not set.
- Tables and drawings should not only be numbered but also signed.
- The completed FP should be sent to the representative office in your area that will pass it for evaluation. Keep a copy to avoid problems with a possible loss in transit.
General Recommendations
- Orientation to the reader, clarity, and precision of the presentation.
- Optimum correlation between theory and practice.
- Structured and logical presentation.
- Use of adapted charts and tables where appropriate.
