If you delay longer than this, you will also delay your graduation. It is expected that a Master's thesis will address significant problems and make a contribution to science and engineering. There are a few basic steps in selecting and defining a thesis topic. First, you should talk to your professors about research areas in which they are involved. You should start with the full-time professors in the Environmental Program.
Faculty associated with the program have several applicable projects.
Talk to other professors inside and outside Engineering. The Environmental Program strongly encourages interdisciplinary research. Therefore, we are flexible when it comes to the major professor you work with on your research, as long as the topic is appropriate to Environmental Engineering or Environmental Quality Science. Many times, there are funded projects on campus that need research assistants. If the topic is interesting to you and applicable to your degree, you may have found your thesis project.
