3. Finalising and submitting your research proposal and dissertation Q&A

Introduction and learning objectives

In this final session we will review your progress on the ARM 1 research proposal assessment and confirm the process for submitting your proposed dissertation topic.

  •  Articulate the steps you need to take to complete and submit your ARM1 research proposal assignment.
  • Understand how to submit your dissertation topic so you can be allocated a supervisor.
  • Identify any further questions you have about the development of your dissertation proposal.

Pre-seminar preparation

In preparation for this dissertation workshop please can you:

  • Identify any worries or gaps in knowledge regarding your ARM1 research proposal assignment.
  • Devise questions to ask the academic team to help you progress your ARM1 research proposal assignment.

Workshop Materials and Follow Up

The slides from the workshop can be found here. Andreas has added a further recording of the slides that cover the ARM1 research proposal to the ARM1 assessment area. Please make sure your follow the guidance for your programme of study (iBSc or MSc). 

A link to the dissertation topic questionnaire can also be found on the ARM 1 assessment area. Remember the deadline for the completion of the questionnaire is the same as the deadline for the research proposal. If you have been granted extenuating circumstances please still to try to complete the questionnaire on time. Remember, the questionnaire is not assessed and the information you provide by completing it is  required so we can match you with a suitable supervisor in a timely manner. We only need basic information to allocate you a supervisor.
