Whats the subject? I'm just finishing mine

No, YANBU sometimes it's very difficult to think of an appropriate topic. When I did my MSc what I found particularly tricky was getting a subject that neatly fit the time boundaries, whereas I could think of some quite large 5 year research projects!!

What's your subject? Maybe we can help.

Ooooh, my DP is diabetic. Type 1 with a pump. If you need any research people, I'm sure he'd take part. He hasn't got a glucose monitor though.

You don't have to do something thats never been done, just a different angle on the same stuff. Can you combine 2 things into one for a novel approach?

Oh the story of my MA was not knowing what to write essays on. I'd never had so much choice before and frankly I just couldn't hack it. I was so conditioned to picking one from a list!

Brainstorm all the topics you've covered this year, and different theories and see if ayou lean towards any of them.

Get a list of all the dissertation titles from the last 5 years. Might give you some inspiraton.

Talk to a tutor that you have some kind of bond with. They might be able to suggest something.

Hope this helps! Good luck with it all.

The main problem is that there are no previous ones..its a new course. And Ive only done 1 module prior to this . Quite difficult.
