  3. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND RESEARCH Introduce the main concepts related to the research Give a summary of what is known about the research project information from books, peer reviewed articles etc. What does the literature say? Highlight the gap/s you are trying to fill

  4. PROBLEM STATEMENT Based on your knowledge/background research, what is the problem/ issue you are trying to address or need you are trying to fulfil?

  5. AIM Clearly state the aim of the research in maximum 2 sentences. The aim must be linked to the problem statement. The aim/s of this research project is/are Is it your aim to also address a need? (Engineering projects) RESEARCH QUESTION State the Research Question that guides your research

  6. HYPOTHESIS / ENGINEERING GOAL A hypothesis is a testable prediction about the outcome/results of your project. Include the variables in your Hypothesis statement. Engineering projects will have Engineering Goals

  7. VARIABLES/DESIGN CRITERIA List the variables or Design Criteria or codes List the fixed; independent; and dependent variables
