3. Some project supervisors give students topics to write on and
some request you submit topics on your own. If the former is the
case, Your job is to search research libraries, online repositories,
journals, course textbooks etc for guides and references.
No topic is a virgin topic, There is always an academic work done
on every topic. If he/she has given you a topic, It is your
supervisor’s specialty, ask them for reference materials too.
They only want you to identify different problems, prove that they
are problems and recommend solutions to them.

4. If you have been asked to submit topics for approval,
here are some guidelines on how to choose a
comfortable topic.

5. Look at previous topics from
other researchers in your field
Take advantage of your school library
and especially your departmental
library to find past projects in your field
and area of interest. This should serve
as a guide in helping you to frame your
own topic, with an extra sense of
assurance that you have reference
materials if the topic is approved.
However, avoid overused topics.
Also, There are different websites
with suggested project topics in
various fields. Of course you don’t
have to plagiarize other people’s
works, but depending on what your
area of interest is, you can work
your topic around the ideas you see
there. You must be passionate
about the topic you choose

6. Consider the time
allotted to complete
your project
Try to make sure it’s something you can
finish up before the deadline.

7. Who is your supervisor?
All internal supervisors are always lecturers in
different areas or branches of your field. You must
choose topics in their area of specialty. An
international relations lecturer will prefer you submit
topics like The role of United Nations Peace keeping
efforts in the world. Stick to areas of concentration
for each supervisor.

8. Choose topics that have
prospects
This means that make sure you work on
topics that will be relevant to you when
you want to further your education.
That is, getting your Msc., Ma. And Phd.
Etc
Undergraduate research work helps
as support documents when it is
time to apply for scholarships,
grants etc.
