    • your topic area; 
    • preliminary research question; 
    • first ideas whether you are focusing on creating knowledge on the topic or design outcomes; and
    • the types of activities for data collection and/or design processes.

    A thesis plan template by the Department of Design is available (LINK) as a guideline while formulating your thesis plan. 

    You can also see the Department of Design MA Thesis Portal / Pre-Thesis for all further resources and information for developing your thesis.

    When you have presented your thesis plan proposal, you may move forward to THESIS: PART 1.
