2.0

PRACTICAL TRAINING
1. Each student will have to undergo a minimum of twenty (20) weeks
practical training in an industry where the student will be able to study
the practical aspects of their field of study.
2. Students should apply for their practical training at the beginning of

Training office.
3. Students are encouraged to apply for practical training places that
match their research interest.
4. The practical training session will begin after the students have
registered themselves for his/her final semester of study.

of Faculty of Business Management, and if properly chosen will serve the
following purposes:
-

4.0

A synthesis of various aspects of learning on the BBA (Hons) of

CHOOSING THE PROJECT TOPIC

It is the students responsibility to identify a suitable project topic, subject
to the approval of his/her advisor (appointed lecturer). The topic must be
of issues related to the field of study or at least related to any subject

In writing a project paper, it is sometimes convenient to use

symbols, abbreviations or jargon that are unfamiliar to the
general reader. It may be helpful to provide a key to these at
the beginning of the project paper and should be presented as
separate page.
Page numbered in Roman numeral accordingly.
Sample - Appendix E

should contain a brief write-up of the problem statement,

objective, methodology, and summary of the findings in the

context of the whole study.
Not more than 300 words and double spacing.

Page numbered in Roman numeral accordingly.

The main body will begin with Chapter 1

The first page of Chapter 1 shall be paginated beginning with
Arabic number (1)

BACKGROUND OF STUDY
One of the most common problems found in project reports
concerns the intelligibility of the work to the general reader.
Students need to remember that, unlike his/her supervisor, the
general reader has not had the benefits of discussing his/her work
with the researcher. The background of study provides an
opportunity to lead the reader gently into the report, beginning by
setting the scene very broadly and then progressively focusing on
the nature of the topic to be addressed, and the reason it was
chosen as the subject of the study.

6.12

CONTENTS AND LITERATURE REVIEW

This section should give a detailed account of the topic to be
studied, a comprehensive discussion (with references where
appropriate) of relevant work which has previously been carried on
by another researcher in the field of study. All materials taken
verbatim from articles, textbooks etc, must be presented in
quotation marks.

Examples of fully referenced review of the literature

1. According to Robinson and Bennett (1995), workplace deviant
behaviour can vary based on its target: organizational and
individual. Organizational targets can be further categorized into
property deviance and production deviance.
2. Sabotage, fight at work, threat, assault, harassment and use of
abusive language are among the cases of workplace deviant
behaviour reported to the Malaysian Labour Department.
Unfortunately, there is no formal statistics on the phenomenon of
WDB produced by the Malaysian Labour Department (Shamsudin
& Rahman, 2006).
5

3. In the case of Malaysia, very few published studies pertaining to

this subject has been traced. For instance, Shamsuddin (2003)
explored the level of workplace deviance within the hotel industry
and how these behaviours vary according to employees workrelated attitudes.

6.13

METHODOLOGY AND FINDINGS

The structure of the report will largely be determined by the nature
of the project, and only general guidance can be given here. In
general, a detailed account will be given, and how it was processed
and/or analyzed. Any results obtained will also be presented here,
but not the discussion of these results.

6.14

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
This is the heart of the report, where students will present a critical
appraisal of what has been written before, make comparisons and
present arguments supported by his/her analysis of the results.
Student should make clear the logical steps which lead to the
conclusions he/she has drawn, and relate these conclusions to the
objectives of the project.

6.15

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The conclusions should follow naturally from the analysis and
should need no further comment, apart from any qualifications,
which may apply to the conditions under which they hold. It is felt
that actions should be taken on the basis of the conclusions then
such recommendations should be stated there.

6.16

APPENDICES
Any materials which is not necessary for the general reader
to follow the reports arguments should be placed in the appendix.
Such material should, nevertheless, must be relevant to the work,
and is included for those readers who may wish to question the
findings or to pursue the work further.

6.17

REFERENCES
Detailed reference should be given so that the reader may
know what sources the writer drew on, which information is
6

attributed to which source and to find the original information for

checking it or to obtain more information.
References may be presented according to the Harvard
system or APA system. References to periodicals should be listed
as follows: authors surnames and initials (instead of first author et
al). Year of publication in parentheses, exact title of paper,
contracted title of periodical in italics (or underlined), volume
number in Arabic figure (in bold print) initial and final page numbers
of article.

CORRECTIONS
Before sending the project paper to a binder, the student should
proof read it to correct any typing errors. If the project paper is
submitted with errors, it will probably be returned to the student for
correction before it is finally accepted.
