Choosing a topic

[Print-friendly version]

Faculty and QUT researchers are available to discuss your topic with you and make sure it is appropriate for the research degree you wish to undertake.

There are also opportunities for you to participate in one of the major ongoing faculty research projects.

These projects are linked to the four research themes which are:

• design research
• infrastructure research
• medical engineering research
• smart systems research

The Faculty's research strengths and emerging priority areas are reflected in the research undertaken within the four themes. Tthe publications of our researchers also provide a good indication of likely topics which can be undertaken.

Discussing your research proposal with an academic early will make completing your application and proposal much easier.

Future research students who need assistance with finding more information about the types of topics which can be studied should contact the Faculty Research Portfolio.
