MSc Dissertation (Informatics)

Your dissertation is 60 credits, completed over the summer. Supervisors normally propose potential projects by early January, and the project allocation process happens early in Semester 2. You will be able to express your preferences for a project, and you will normally get one of your top few choices, but we cannot guarantee that you will be assigned to any particular project or supervisor.
