What makes a good project topic

A good topic is one you can finish and explain. Examiners mark a complete, modest project above an ambitious one that is half done, and the viva is taken on your own report.

For a project with coding, that means a problem you have seen yourself, data worth storing and at least two kinds of user. For a study with no coding, it means a group of 50 to 100 people you can actually survey, or published figures you can download, and three objectives you can write down today.

Narrow it before you commit: add a place, a group or a feature to the title. Then take two or three options to your guide, because the guide approves the topic, not a list on the internet.
