Potential topics

Procedure to select an MSc topic

  • You can pick a topic from June until September 15th the latest, where you need to have a topic and at least one supervisor selected
  • Be warned that if you wait for September, then it is possible that your topic is already gone and your favourite supervisor is full
  • A topic can be changed a bit until the P1 (mid-November)
  • You can pick any topics below, or you can speak to a geomatics staff and if you agree on a topic, then submit it (with a temporary title)
  • If your topic is in collaboration with an external party, keep in mind that several staff follow the requirements for open science
  • If you have agreed on a topic with a supervisor and they agree, no need to submit #2 and #3 topic, put blanks or just type *no further topics*
  • Only the 1st supervisor is relevant at this point, the 2nd can be added later
  • Questions? discord channel #geo2020 is the best place to ask
