If you use abbreviations (for example: i.a., etc. or e.g.) in your assignment, it is important that you:
Before using an abbreviation: Consider whether it would be easier to understand the word if you wrote it in full.
Check whether your degree programme has developed its own list of fixed abbreviations.
See for example the rules and guidelines from the Department of Dentistry and Oral Health (in Danish).
The information about formalities is written in collaboration between Center for Educational Development (CED) and AU Library and is general guidelines for formal requirements. They do not replace the provisions in your academic regulations, your lecturers' guidance or information on your course's website. If in doubt ask your supervisor.
