Currently I am doing MSC (Aeronautical) from France and I am planning to go for a PhD but the major problem I am facing is the Reseach Proposal.

As I am interested in Solid Mechanics, Crash & Impact Energy Materails, Engineering Materails, Smart Materials (Piezo-Electric Actuators/Sensors). But still unable to even think about a single topic or title to put the research.

I will be very thankful if some senior can advice, guide and help me.

Bye n Take care

Approach the supervisor you want, or a friendly lecturer from your course, and discuss ideas with them. I went to my supervisor with a vague idea and started to narrow it down that way.

I agree with Mia, as always ;) But there you go, you've already made a start in just describing to us what particular area. So find someone who knows the area and punch out the finer details.

It's only because I'm always right!

Mia, you're a lady, of course you always think you're right ;-)

But the main problem is that i have to send my applications forms and i have to be sure that can get the PhD Studies option since all universities are putting lot of stress over the research proposal: Now who should i discuss the matter.

THanks and will be looking for help n advice.

What do you mean 'think'?
