You'd have to check with your supervisor and/or your department's FYP coordinator. I don't recall a specific wordcount in our department

Some departments don't have a word count but a format that has to be followed.

MABE used to be maximum of 70 pages in the main body of the report, no word limit. Not sure if that still applies. They also specified formatting rules for margins, fonts, line spacing. Every department tends to have its own rules/guidelines: check with the department co-ordinator.
