Abstract
This abstract is a very important and obligatory part of the report allowing the potential reader to judge,
if he is the target of this report. The abstract is a summary of the entire report and not an introduction
to the report. It should be written with broadly understandable technical language and should be selfcontained, i.e. should not contain any references or citations. Also the usage of abbreviations and
acronyms should be avoided, since the same acronyms or abbreviations can have different meanings on
different research fields. The abstract should typically contain about 400 words and in any cases not
more than one page. The definition of the research field and the most important outcome of the
presented research are the obligatory components of the abstract.

Chapter 1
Introduction
Total page number should not exceed 30 pages starting from the introduction until the conclusion.
The main task of the introduction in the senior report is to present the logical chain

Starting from the current state-of-the-art,

Evaluation of its weaknesses,

Formulation of the main problem,

Showing the way of solving the problem and,

Finishing with the contribution of the presented work to this solution.
The introduction can consist of one text body, but it can also be differently structured. Typical
components are the motivation and the aim of the project. The introduction has typically 1 to 4 pages.
1.1 Motivation
The motivation should answer the following questions: Why the work has been done? For whom? What
is its importance
1.2 Aim of the project
The description of the project task should describe what is the technical aim of the work? What are the
specific tasks? how it can be proved, that the task is reached?
1.3 Constraints
What are the constraints of your work and how did you make sure they were met? Refer to the section
in the report that deals with each constraint.
Constrains may include but not limited to: Economical constrains (e.g. cost), Environmental constrains,
Sustainability, Operational constrains, Health and Safety, Ethical, Political and Social. Discuss the
applicable ones only.

1.4 Standards:
What are the engineering standards used in your project? Refer to the section in the report where you
take these standards into consideration.
1.5 Report Outline
This briefly describes the content of the following Chapters.

Chapter 2
Theoretical Background and Literature Review
In this chapter, you should present the background information needed for the proposed work of the
thesis.
The background chapter is typically subdivided in several subsections. In some cases, it is also more
suitable to make more than one main chapter with diverse theoretical backgrounds, if needed.
It is very important to conduct a literature review of the scholar research related to your topic. The
selected journals should relatively new. At least three relevant scholars should be summarized and
synthesized.
The background and literature review chapter (or chapters) should not constitute more than 25-30% of
the total text.
It is recommendable that each chapter begins by an introductory paragraph or two. It is like a miniintroduction to this chapter.
2.1 First Section (size 16 Bold)
Text size 12 Normal
Line spacing 1.5
Especially important in the background presentation are the references on the most acknowledged
books, articles or crucial WWW-links. It is recommended to use the Reference style provided in this
template and use the cross-reference feature of Microsoft word or any other available tool like
Mendeley [https://www.mendeley.com/]. An example reference [1] is provided in the end of this
template.

For figures (if needed), a figure could be inserted as .tif, .jpeg, or word picture. A caption should be inserted for
each figure. The figure also needs to be referred to in the text. A list of figures is also provided in this template.

2.1.2 Subsection
Text size 12 Normal
For tables (if needed), a table could be inserted using the table toolbar. A caption should be inserted for
each table. Tables need to be referred to and explained in the text. A list of tables is also provided in this
template.

Chapter 3
Design and Implementation
This chapter constitutes the main part of the report. After outlining the problem in Chapter 1 and
presenting the background information for your work Chapter 2, you start presenting your work and
design steps in this chapter. Here you need to show how you took the constraints into consideration in
your design and how the standards were used. This depends on the type of the project.
6
Chapter 4
Results and Discussion
After the presenting your design and work, the results obtained are shown and discussed in this chapter.
How do you know that your design worked and that the problem you started out to solve has actually
been solved. If not solved, then you need to discuss the reasons and propose solutions. You discussion
and justification should be supported with evidences from literature.
7
Chapter 5
Conclusion and Future Work
Write your conclusions here. Typically, 1-2 paragraphs where you tell what the problem was and how it
was solve. Then the main results in 1-2 paragraphs. In addition, you can describe topics for future
research in the last paragraph.
