(English and American Specialisation) Choice of Topic, Thesis Topic and Submission of Thesis Title Some Departments may require that you submit the topic of your Thesis before you submit the title. The topic is not recorded by the Registrar (TO) and serves the purpose of giving you some time for preliminary research before you narrow down your focus on a well-defined research area and formally submit the title to the Department and the Registrar. The title must be submitted in the 5th semester of your studies at the latest (see general deadlines; current deadlines are set by the Registrar every semester). We strongly advise you to start making enquiries about possible topics/titles with your would-be Supervisor in the 4th semester to have enough time for the submission of thesis title in the 5th semester. All Departments have a list of suggested topics for your consideration. Some may require that you take your pick from these. Some Departments leave the topic to be decided on by the Supervisor and the Student. Make enquiries with your Supervisor and/or Head of Department. The list of suggested topics may be revised annually (this is the responsibility of the Head of Department). The title must be approved by the Supervisor. Any full-time member of staff of SEAS can be a Supervisor. The choice of title and Supervisor must be approved by the Head of Department. A Supervisor can be in charge of 6 theses at most in an academic year. Students must regularly meet with their Supervisors and can also take a tutorial seminar. As of Spring 2016 there is a supervisor's commitment clause. When submitting the Thesis title submission form for approval to the Head of Department they will also decide on the main topic of the final examination and this will be recorded on the thesis title submission form. The main topic is the subject area from which the Student will draw a question.

Deadlines are changed so often by the Faculty that the present document cannot be kept up-to-date. Please refer to more reliable sources for deadlines. By writing and defending their Thesis, students must demonstrate that they are capable of producing a longer piece of academic writing and arguing for their own views against an expert of the field. Choice of topic In the American degree courses, generally, DAS and its head are responsible for the professional aspects of the graduation process and the acceptance of the thesis title. In the English degree courses, generally, DES, DELG and DEAL (i.e., their respective heads) are responsible. The chart below also contains the topic numbers belonging to each thesis field. The Head responsible for the Thesis will assign one of these topics at the submission of the Thesis title and the Candidate will draw a question from this topic at the Final Examination.

This holds for supplementary students, too: the previous regulation, prohibiting them from writing their Thesis in methodology, has been repealed (IC Act, 4 Mar 2003). Supplementary students (AN/AKN), however, are discouraged from writing a Thesis on the same topic as that of their previous.
