Guidelines for Preparing Project Report:

All the students of final semester, B.Tech. (Chemical Engineering) are hereby informed to
prepare their reports as per following instructions.
 Cover Page Design:
1. Cover page design must be uniform as displayed on the notice board.
2. For getting approval of your reports, you must bring all your reports in SOFT COPY.
Once your reports are approved, go for BINDING.

 There has to be two sections in each report shown with yellow color page
Write phase I or II and the title of the project report
 Keep one white blank page before each chapter with chapter name and title only
 Font : Normal Text- Times New Roman, size 12
 Chapter’s Heading - Times New Roman, size 16, Bold
 Subheading- Times New Roman, size 14,Bold
 Margins- As per A-4 size default settings
 Paragraph’s Alignment- Justified
 Line spacing 1.5
 Figure Caption ( Must be below the figure and centrally aligned)- Times New Roman,
size 12
As shown below in the sample
e.g. Figure 1.1 Chemical Structure Of The Product (source)
In case if picture is taken from some website or book also mention source of the
figure in bracket of figure caption
 Table caption (Must be above the table and centrally aligned)-Times Times New
Roman, size 12
As shown below in the sample
e.g. Table 1.1 Chemical properties Of The Product (source)
In case if data is taken from some website or book also mention source of the data in
bracket of table caption
 Page number should be at right bottom corner and all the pages should be without
boarder. Only Black color to be used in printing.
