    Hi all,

    Currently doing a one year masters in Structural Engineering and we need to determine our own thesis!

    I have no idea whether to do this in a structural or environmental field??

    Does anyone know of any interesting topics which I could do this on??

    Thanks in advance, any help is gratefully appreciated!!

    Have a look at the this list for ideas: these are papers published by UCD researchers in this general area. Those are PhD level papers, but I think there are a few ideas there.

    IMHO you'd have to be sure to make it a Structural thesis first, and Environment would be a secondary consideration. Example: there's all kinds of research going on to make cement less of an environmental nightmare, but "green" cement is no good to anyone if it results in crappy concrete . :cool:
