The ability to develop a good research topic is an important skill. An instructor may assign you a specific topic, but most often instructors require you to select your own topic of interest. When deciding on a topic, there are a few things that you will need to do:
- brainstorm for ideas
- choose a topic that will enable you to read and understand the literature
- ensure that the topic is manageable and that material is available
- make a list of key words
- be flexible
- define your topic as a focused research question
- research and read more about your topic
- formulate a thesis statement
While we help you to select the right and relevant topic, we do not impose our choice on you. We only shortlist a few optimised topic and title ideas and it is you who makes the final decision on one of these. We guide you to find the right fit in accordance with your priorities and requirements.
