Welcome Note:
Welcome to Graduation projects course at Faculty of Pharmacy - Delta University where we are committed
to participate in graduating well-educated pharmacists.
Our graduates can fulfill their professional duties competently and matches the needs of the industrial and
the local job market.
Faculty members are committed to offer our students the opportunity to explore new areas of study and go
beyond the restrictions of current knowledge to make new innovations.
This mission is achieved through our experienced faculty members who provide time and effort to
personalize the students’ research experiences.
In addition, the students benefit from our facilities that range from fully equipped laboratories to our e-
libraries and e-learning system.
Overview:
Graduation project course is a partial requirement for the fulfillment of the credit hours. This course
engages the students in activities outside the classroom. It provides them the opportunity to learn from
experience, i.e., hands on learning. This will help developing new skills, new attitudes, and new ways of
thinking. This handout provides information about the graduation project’s process, evaluation criteria, a
suggested documentation template, and forms
Independent elective courses (GP 551) and (GP 552) are the two project courses in the final year. It is
equivalent to 4credit hours (2 credits in the 9th semester and 2 credits in the 10thsemester).
Independent Studies that focused on establishing the scope of the work, problem definition, data collection,
literature review, research methodology, data analysis, and finally conclusion of research plan for the next
semester project. Each group of students is working on a specific project under supervision of one of the
faculty staff members.
The research project is designed to allow the students to work in groups each with well defined individual
tasks to acquire new knowledge and skills independently. Group work allows students acquire teamwork,
organization, and communication skills. Other skills acquired are running meetings, making collective
decisions, time management, writing reports, and oral presentations.
Students must adhere to the university safety lab measures while conducting their research. Students are
encouraged to submit their research to national, regional and international conferences.

Definition of Undergraduate Research
Undergraduate research may be defined as “an inquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate
student that makes an original intellectual or creative contribution to the discipline.”
The key elements of research are planned inquiry, experimentation, observation, study, analysis and
documentation. These activities result in the discovery of new facts, knowledge and information; new
interpretation of existing facts, knowledge and information; and the discovery of new ways of application
of existing knowledge.
Goals of Research in the FOP/DU The overarching goal of research in Faculty of Pharmacy is to make research available to all students by:
- Integrating research experiences into courses.
- Using research as a pedagogical tool to facilitate learning of students who are challenged by more abstract
concepts.
- Providing intensive research experiences for students to pursue in-depth investigations under supervision
of faculty.
- Encouraging and preparing students for professional and graduate program.
Benefits of Research - Facilitates learning of abstract concepts
- Increases retention of students and their attachment to their disciplines.
- Fosters the development of critical thinking and skills of inquiry
- Stimulates interest in science
- Fosters the discovery of knew knowledge
- Changes attitudes of students towards learning
- Promote career pathways

The course should enable the students to: 1. Learn the different methodologies utilized in research.
2. Get familiarized with the systematic information collection from various sources.
3. Write proposal
5. Utilize presentation or poster for delivering the seminar.
6. Develop communication/presentation skills.
7. Defend their project research work.
What You Will Learn in Undergraduate Research - Research is a carefully planned and executed activity.
- It follows certain general steps that proceed in a systematic way.
- The student would learn both hard and soft skills, including the following:
How scientists and other researchers think and do business
Research being conducted by your faculty members
Conduct literature surveys (searches) to learn about the problem to be investigated.
How other researchers are attempting to address it directly or in related ways
Use existing literature to assist one in planning and conducting research
- Design research according to standard procedures to obtain valid data
- Analyze and interpret data correctly and draw correct conclusions
- Present research work to an audience through various avenues (oral, written – formal and informal) and
thereby improve communication skills
- For formal presentations one would learn the art of writing and presenting at meetings
- Learn to effectively participate with faculty mentors
- Learn to work with other people
- Effectively manage time so the research is conducted and completed on time, while balancing it with
other academic and social demands on time.

Graduation Project – Course Details
Objectives Outcomes The course should enable the students to:
1. Learn the different methodologies utilized
in research.
2. Get familiarized with the systematic
information collection from various sources.
3. Learn statistical and/or analytical
techniques to run the analyses and compute
results.
4. Write reports
5. Utilize power-point and other presentation
techniques for delivering the seminar.
6. Develop communication/presentation
skills.
7. Defend their project research work.
The student should be able to:
1. Systematically collect information from
various sources on a particular topic of need.
2. Summarize the obtained information into a
scientific report.
3. Operate some statistical programs and/or
perform some analytical techniques.
3. Prepare Audio-visual presentations of the
collected information and defend the
scientific content of it.
Being specific is not the same thing as including loads of detail. Being specific means including only as
much detail as the job requires--not more. "
"This means that the proposal must walk the fine line of enough detail to show the reader that the candidate
knows what they are talking about, but not too much detail that it confuses or bores the search committee."
Keep it short and focus on the major themes.
The specific aims must be:
- Clear and succinct.
- Identify your goals,
- state why those goals are important,
- define your approach to achieving those goals,
- Indicate the kinds of evidence that will validate your approach.
- Do it clearly and briefly.
- Avoid alienating the committee by boring them.
- Tell the committee precisely what you intend to do.
- Show that you have a subtle mind and a deep knowledge of your field.

Be serious about writing.
There are two main parts about the whole proposal:
- You not only have to tell a good story
- You have to make it seem real, to make them expect it to come true.
How do I make my research plan seem real?
Have a solid, well-considered, realistic plan. .
Nothing grounds your hopes and dreams in the real world like good, solid data.
Pay attention to the layout.
- Keep the number of fonts to a minimum, but make sure the various sections and ideas are set off by
plenty of white space.
- Well-chosen section headings, etc.
- Bulleted lists are good;
- Avoid page-long paragraphs.
- Use spell checker.
Use good graphics.
- A good figure, displayed prominently and captioned carefully, is worth, say, a couple hundred words.
- Avoid obvious mistakes. "Poorly covering or misstating the literature, grammatical or spelling errors.
Avoid misrepresentations.
Motivate your work (why must this work be done?).
Use appropriate detail.
Include preliminary data (if possible).
Plagiarism is misconduct in academia whereby an original work is cited or used without the permission
of the author. Various tools are available for exposing such misconduct. Some information may be so
commonplace such that it may be used without giving credit to any one person. On the other hand, as one
conducts and uses information from literature searches, it is critical that the sources of information be
acknowledged. If the idea is obtained from multiple sources, they must all be acknowledged in chronological
order. Make sure that you acknowledge the authors of ALL publications you use to write your proposal.
Failure to do so will be considered as plagiarism. Do not copy word for word what an author has said. You
may think that the original author has presented the information using the best possible words in the best
format. However, it is best to analyze the information presented and re-write it in your own words. If you
absolutely have to quote an author ad verbatim, then make sure that you use quotation marks and italics to
indicate it

14. References
The details of each section are as follows:
1. Title page
The title should be relatively short but informative.
2. Abstract
An abstract should be a brief summary of the significant items of the main proposal.
An abstract should give concise information about the content of the core idea of your paper.
It should be informative and not only present the general scope of the paper but also indicate the main results
and conclusions. The abstract should concisely describe the topic, the scope, and the principal findings. It
should be written last to accurately reflect the content of the report. A primary objective of an abstract is to
communicate to the reader the essence of the paper. It should provide sufficient information to describe the
important features of the work in the absence of the rest of the document. The reader will then be the judge
of whether to read the full report or not. Were the report to appear in the primary literature, the abstract would
serve as a key source of indexing terms and key words to be used in information retrieval?
The length of abstracts varies but seldom exceeds 250 words. The font size should be 12 and the line
spacing should be 1.5

3. Keywords
The abstract should be followed by five keywords. The Keywords are important words/concepts found in the
research question or thesis and should be very general. Using Keywords to search always retrieve more
results than phrases and sentences
List of all keywords proposed by the authors, separated by commas.
4. Introduction
A good introduction is a clear statement of the problem or project and the reasons for studying it. The nature
of the problem and why it is of interest should be conveyed in the opening paragraphs. This section should
describe clearly but briefly the background information on the problem, what has been done before (with
proper literature citations), and the objectives of the current project. A clear relationship between the current
project and the scope and limitations
Introduction should:
- Indicate the scope of the proposal.
- Present the goals of proposal.
- Provide novelty of research work
Background (Review of Literature) This section reflects extensive review of literature done by the investigator
•In this section what is already known about the topic is written including the lacunae
•Just quoting the literature verbatim will not serve the purpose
•It is important to make it coherent, relevant and easily readable knowledge
•It helps the investigator to gain good knowledge in that field of inquiry
•It also helps the investigator to have insight on different methodologies that could be applied
5. Aims/Objectives
The aim of the work, i.e. the overall purpose of the study, should be clearly and concisely defined. Aims:
Are broad statements of desired outcomes, or the general intentions of the research, which 'paint a picture' of
your research project. Emphasize what is to be accomplished (not how it is to be accomplished)

What methods will you use to address your research problem?
What do you need? (Specify any special equipment, software or material)
Do you require particular resources?
Are there barriers or pitfalls that you can anticipate in your planned research?
Does the project involve human ethics, animal ethics or safety implications? Is travel or fieldwork required? If so, where to,
how long and at what intervals? It should be written in sufficient detail to enable others to repeat the authors’
work.
7. Expected Results
This section should be describing the plan of the work and the assuming practical outlines may be
combined or kept separate and may be further divided into subsections. This section should not contain
technical details.
7. Conclusion (Expected outcomes, significance or rationale)
Why your proposal is important?
What do you expect it will deliver? What are the expected outcomes?
Establish the importance of your project by highlighting its originality or why it is worth pursuing. Highlight the benefits,
positive expected outcomes or innovative applications of knowledge. It should be representing the summary of the
important findings.
8. Acknowledgements
Information concerning research grant support, assistance of colleagues or any other notes of
Appreciation should appear in this section.
9. Reference list
Thorough, up-to-date literature references acknowledge foundational work, direct the reader to published
procedures, results, and interpretations, and play a critical role in establishing the overall scholarship of the
report. Please ensure that every reference cited in the text is also present in the reference list (and vice versa).
Unpublished results and personal communications are not recommended in the reference list, but may be
mentioned in the text and should include a substitution of the publication date with either 'Unpublished
results' or 'Personal communication'. Citation of a reference as 'in press' implies that the item has been
