PROJECT REPORT CHECKLIST

The following checklist can be used as a sanity check to verify that the Project Report meets the expectations.
The checklist will also be used to evaluate the report. In the “Possible Points” column, each field has either an “ * ”
or a numeric value:
- “ * “ denotes a condition that has to be met, that is, no matter what the other points are, the Project Report
cannot be considered acceptable if those criteria are not met.
- the points for the other fields will be awarded if criteria are met. For the project report to be considered
acceptable, your total points have to be higher than 80 (max points =100).
