Writing an Exposé

Your thesis begins by writing a detailed project proposal. The more detailed and thorough your proposal, the better your final thesis. 

The structure of the proposal is very similar to that of your final thesis or a scientific paper:  

• Abstract (~ 200 word summary) 
• Research challenge or question 
• Literature review 
• Proposed approach/methods 
• Implementation plan and schedule 
• Hardware and software requirements (e.g. head-mounted display, workstation, tracking system) 

Examples of thesis proposals: 

• Bachelor thesis: Visualisaing protein networks 

• Bachelor proposal: Eine kritische, komparative Analyse von Methoden zur Untersuchung differentieller Genexpression 

• Honors Thesis Proposal For Joint Graphical Lasso and Deep Learning Methods for Dynamic Brain Connectome Prediction 

• Honors Thesis Proposal For Design and Investigation of Vitiated-Air Heater for Scramjet Engine 

• Masters thesis: Implementation and Evaluation of the TPC-DI Benchmark... 

There is no fixed length for an exposé. Much of the material in your exposé will become part of your final thesis. Here is a rough guide:
