Outcome Format

Students have the opportunity to present their Outcome in a multitude of formats; scientific reports, essays, films, posters, brochures and web pages, just to name a few. It is advisable to consider the target audience for your Outcome, as well as the nature of your RP topic when selecting the most appropriate format.

The target audience should influence your decisions about the style and tone of the Outcome, whilst the research topic may suggest a that a particular format is most suitable. (Eg. A research project about art or photography might be best presented visually).
