edges. The printing must be of what is called `letter quality': it must be as clear and dense as if it were
typed using a carbon ribbon. A laser printer is recommended.

PU has prescribed the length and specific formatting of text (font or typeface, text size, spacing, etc.) for
the report. You should be able to format your report in the style as prescribed.

Evaluation of Internship Report

The faculty supervisor, possibly your field supervisor, and the evaluation committee formed by PU,
evaluate your internship report placing equal emphasis on content and literary quality.

To receive a good grade the internship report should follow the structure and format as prescribed in the
document. Additionally, the report should be of high literary quality free of grammatical and spelling
errors. Grammar and spelling errors result in an automatic "unsatisfactory''.

The internship report has to be submitted to the faculty supervisor allowing at least one week for the
evaluation.
