Choosing the right research topic is the foundation of a successful thesis or PhD. Many students struggle at this stage and often select topics that are either too broad, outdated, or not aligned with their academic goals.

A good research topic should be relevant to your field, supported by sufficient literature, and feasible within your time frame. It must also align with your university guidelines and your supervisor’s area of interest. Selecting a topic without proper validation can lead to repeated rejections, delays, and unnecessary stress.
