You should be able to “unpack” your topic paragraph (executive summary) into a reasonable project summary of about 1.5 pages double spaced. This is what your faculty advisor will be approving.
Steps to success:
1) Make sure the executive summary is CLEAR and CONCISE. It should make sense to someone who does not know about your project.
2) ANTICIPATE what questions the faculty member will ask.
3) ANSWER the questions as you develop your summary.
