Abstract

The abstract is a brief (approx. 150 words) condensation of the report. It summarizes the goals and results of the project and acts as a quick reference for people who do not wish to read the entire report. Do not explain why the study is done in the abstract and you should focus on your contributions to the understanding and solution of your project problem. That belongs to the introduction. Describe each of the following in one or two sentences.

· What was done

· How it was done

· Significant results

Writing style

In general, do not use “I”, “we”, “he”, or “she” in technical writing. Always use passive voice and past tense.
