GUIDELINES FOR WRITING SUMMER INTERNSHIP PROJECT REPORT
(100 MARKS)
Instructions:
Each student should prepare three identical project reports, one of which must be submitted to the
Institute on July 15, 2019 (Monday). The report without certificate of completion issued by the company
guide will not be accepted under any circumstances. Page numbering should commence from the table of
contents. The color of the hard bound summer report has to be Maroon with Golden Printing. The
specimen can be seen in the library of the Institute.
REPORT FORMAT
The outcomes of research works are to be conveyed to end-users or recorded for future use. The research
efforts will be useful to the end-users only when they are documented in the form of reports. So, a
standardized format for the report will help researchers present their contributions and findings more
systematically.

Introductory Pages
Acknowledgements: In the process of carrying out any project, the students would have received help
from different persons and organizations. So, all those helps should be acknowledged under this heading.
In an academic research, a sample list of people who are to be acknowledged is as follows:
Industry Guide
Organizational Head (Industry Head)
Members of the department who rendered their valuable suggestions and criticism during the research
period
The executives in different organizations who provided data and literature for the research
Faculty Guide
CRC Head
Director General
The typesetting office and personnel.
Abstract: Abstract gives an executive summary or overview of the project report outlining the title of the
project, objective(s), shortcomings of existing literatures, need for further research, proposed measure of
performance and research methods, results of comparison and highlights of inferences as brief
conclusions
Table of content: Table of content is the catalogue of the project report, which summarizes every aspect
of the report.
List of tables and figures: In project reports, the data and results are presented in the form of tables for
quick grasp. Each and every table must be numbered. The numbering should be such that it is internal to
each chapter. For example, if the total number of tables in Chapter 4 is 20, then the numbering should be
from Table 4.1 to Table 4.20 and similarly for figures.
Text
Different items under 'Text' are Chapters, Main Sections, Subsections, and Conclusions.
Chapters: The text of the report should be divided into different chapters depending on the type of
project. In the case of survey based project report, the different chapters are as listed below:
1. Introduction
a. Introduction of Topic
b. Background & justification of the topic
2. Company Profile
3. Literature Review
4. Research Objectives and Hypothesis
5. Research Methodology
6. Data Analysis and Interpretation of Findings
7. Conclusions
8. Suggestions and Recommendations

Introduction: The chapter on introduction should begin with the origin and the development of the
project concept along with the most significant contributions in the past must be summarized in this
chapter. At the end of this chapter, the plan of project in the form of a flowchart should be presented.
Further, this chapter should give a lead for literature search.
Introduction to Organization: It focuses on background, organization structure, company turnover,
product line, distribution network, market share and relevance of the subject to the organization under
study.
Literature Review: Literature review is the crucial part of any research. This helps the researcher avoid
reinventing past contributions and results. This focuses on the past literature in the field of research and
its classification under different angles.
Objectives and Hypothesis: Based on the direction of the literature review, the researcher should clearly
spell out the objectives of the research and related hypotheses. As mentioned earlier, hypothesis is an
assumption about the population where the truth of the assumption is not sure. The researcher should list
a meaningful number of hypotheses, which will be tested under the chapter 'Data Analysis’.
Research Methodology: Methodology aims to finalize the activities of research design and data
collection procedure.
After designing the questionnaire, the researcher should organize the data collection activity with the
help of interviewers as per the assumed sampling plan and experimental design. Anyone or a
combination of primary data collection methods, viz., observation method, personal interview, and
telephone interview and mail survey is to be used in the study.
Data Analysis and Interpretation: The data analysis can be classified into preliminary analysis and
hypotheses testing. This chapter deals with the application of statistical tools for the analysis of data and
making inferences.
In preliminary analysis, the data are presented in the form of charts and graphs to have insight into the
research problem. This helps the researcher come out with some inferences, but these are based on the
observations from the charts and graphs.
The second type of analysis is the testing of hypotheses. The different hypotheses which have been
formulated earlier are tested at this stage. This exercise will reveal certain underlying facts of the
research problem which will help the researcher formulate strategies for the operations of any business
system. This chapter will have a major subsection on results and discussions. In some cases, this section
deals with mathematical models and regression models, in addition to the above items.
Conclusions: The chapter on conclusions summarizes project findings, contribution of the study,
limitations of the study, and scope for the future research.
Suggestions and Recommendations: The researcher has to give his/her views as suggestion or
8
recommendations to the organization based on the analysis of data collected.
Bibliography
A bibliography, the product of the practice of bibliography, is a systematic list of books and other works
such as journal articles. Bibliographies range from "works cited" lists at the end of books and articles to
complete, independent publications. As separate works, they may be in bound volumes such as those
shown on the right or computerized bibliographic databases. A library catalog, while not referred to as a
"bibliography," is bibliographic in nature. The references can be classified into journals, books,
magazines, newspapers, research studies, etc. These are illustrated below.
