Midterm deliverables and activities

1. Midterm report

The midterm report should provide the skeleton of the final report: a preliminary table of content of the final report with, for each section, a text drafted or a text indicating the intended content of that particular section.

A template for the report will be provided to obtain uniformity in the structure of all synthesis reports.

2. Midterm presentation

Each project team gives a midterm presentation including:

  • project at hand summarised

  • status and progress of the project: preliminary results

  • amendments to the Project Initiation Document, including motivation of these amendments, consequences, etc. (if necessary)

Also include your presentation the process/management of the project:

  • how your project is organised (who is responsible for what, time management, communication, how is the supervision organised, risk management/ mitigation)

  • involvement of the company

  • what runs well, what needs to be improved

  • planning until the final report deadline

The presentation is 15min, followed by questions from the peer-review team and questions/comments from the supervisors. The audience consists of all GEO1101 students, the supervisors, and possibly the clients.

Note

Prepare at this stage a written summary of the results of your project. This helps you to conduct your oral presentation and eases the completion of the final report.
