MSc Dissertation Titles
Titles in this document are given by members of staff who are actively involved in their respective areas of research and their current interests. Most of the titles are therefore ‘cutting edge’ research, and are targeted in the first instance at MSc students. Some topics may be expressed closely or differently to what you expect but in many cases versions of the topic can be mutually agreed between students and supervisors, which will be within your capabilities.
Procedure
A formal meeting is usually arranged in the first instance with all MSc students to discuss all the topics and questions addressed at this meeting. Students are then given some time to choose the topics and then approach prospective supervisors.
