Research Report & Presentation (160 points)
Research Cycle
Assignment:
You are to complete a research project on an environmental engineering topic. The report must have a literature review that identifies the state-of-the-art engineering methods for the topic. The expected finished length of this assignment is from 40 to 50 pages.
You must also prepare a 10-12 minute presentation with slides to introduce your problem statement, historical significance, current media coverage, current research, your opinions and final conclusions.
Use Microsoft Office software (Word, PowerPoint) or its equivalent. File formats that are acceptable for this assignment include: docx and pptx. All text must be your own original work. Use quotes sparingly. Images of text are not acceptable. Credit all contributing sources of information in your list of references.
Formatting:
Body Text Size: All of the body text in this assignment needs to be set in 12-point size. Please resist the temptation to mix and match point sizes. If you doubt your applications intentions, just select your text and insure that it is in 12-point size.
Header Text Size: All of the header text in this assignment can be set in 14-point or 16-point size. Please resist the temptation to mix and match point sizes. Pick your text size and use it consistently throughout the assignment. If you doubt your applications intentions, just select your text and insure that it is in its chosen point size.
Double Spacing: For this assignment select all of your text and set it for double spacing. This includes the headers and body of your work. This allows space for marking up or making notes while I am reviewing what you have written. This also helps to make the document more readable. (The exception to the double spacing is the text on the title page.)
Page Margins: Set your pages to one-inch margins. One-inch margins mean one (1”) on all sides. The only text that ends up on the outside of the one-inch margin is the page number.
Title Page: This page will contain the title, “Research Project”, and the name block. Place the title in the center, right to left and about one-third the way down the page.
Name Block: Place the name block in the center, right to left and about two- thirds the way down the page. Put your name first, then the class title and then the date. Example:

Spelling/Grammar Checking: Remember to do your spelling and grammar checking before turning your assignments in. When doing the spelling/grammar checking keep in mind that some words such as mush and must, woods and words, or here and cow, will not be caught by either check. To correct these problems, you will need to proofread your work.
Page Numbers: Any assignment that has more than one page, needs to have page numbers on it. Please place your page numbers on the bottom of the page. In MS Word, use the footer selection and place the page number in the bottom center or bottom right of the page.
