In this section of your report you are supposed to clearly describe the background of the
company of your internship. Write something about the historical background and describe

1.2. Organizational Structure

Describe how the company is set up. Remember that organizational structure allows allocation
of responsibilities for different functions and processes to different entities such as the branch,
department, workgroup and individual.

Organizational structure affects organizational action in two big ways. First, it provides the
foundation on which standard operating procedures and routines rest. Second, it determines
which individuals get to participate in which decision-making processes, and thus to what
extent their views shape the organization’s actions.

Organizational structure activities are tasks such as task allocation, coordination and
supervision, which are directed towards the achievement of organizational aims. It can also be
considered as the viewing glass or perspective through which individuals see their organization
and its environment.

Describe both organizational activities and organizational activities (use of organizational

charts is quite relevant) of the company.

1.3. Staff profile (optional)

This is optional point to be discussed. However, if you have the data describing the staff

table or graph form.

references should follow a well-established and consistent style. For example, you can follow the
following format. The [1] shows the one which you used in the paper. Look at the following
example:

P. I. Kuznetsov and R. L. Stratonovich, “The Propagation of Electro-magnetic Waves in

Multiconductor Transmission Lines”, New York: Pergamon, 1964.

General Consideration

Margin of 3 cm on left (for binding), 2.5cm on right, 2.5 cm on top and bottom is required.
Generally a font of 14 points for only the title of the theses and for the rest 12 points in “Times
New Roman” style is to be followed. All the measurements are in Metric units and money is Birr
or Dollar. Each of the preliminaries and chapters must begin on new page and headings are in
upper case letters centered and bold. No titles or headings of any division, heading of Table and
Figure are under lined, punctuated or italic font. Each chapter opens with one or two paragraph
that discusses general issue of the chapter so that sub-headings do not occur just below the
chapter heading. All the sub- headings, sub- division headings, heading of Tables and Figures are
written in bold lower case (except first letter of first word and proper nouns), flushed to left and
should not run with text.

The spacing between the lines in text is 1.5 and between two paragraphs are always two spaces.
A free space between paragraph above and below the sub-headings and sub-division headings
are required in text. In first series small Roman numerals (i, ii, iii…) are used for all the pages
starting from the beginning of cover page ending at the last page of abstract. In second series
Arabic numerals (1, 2, 3. . .) are used from first page of Introduction and continued till the end of
Appendix section. The first page of both the series must not have its page number typed on it,
thus page numbering start with “ii” on next page at the bottom and center of pages in case of
first series and with “2” on the second page of INTRODUCTION at the top aligned with right
hand margin. Chapter headings begin with Arabic numerals starting from 1 for
INTRODUCTION and end with APPENDIX.
