How to choose M.Pharm project
Step 1: Select broad themes you are interested.
(1)
The first thing you need to do is jot down the general themes what makes you
interest in your subject area. If you are doing masters then think about what
topics make you interested in your masters degree.
(2)
Then think about ''HOT'' topics in your field. For this one you need to look
for either in the research papers or in the popular journals like ''Science
Direct'' or ''Pubmed''
(3)
Look for popular discussions about your interested topic in discussion forums
relevant to pharmacy profession.
(4)
Consider to think about your interests from your childhood and young age. So
far you got some idea so what you need to do is take a pen and paper and write
down your thoughts.
Step 2: What are particular things making you interest in those themes?
This is the step you need to put little bit more
effort, in fact it is for example: In the general theme if you got up
with one or more questions need to be answer then consider them
as separably and make the list of your interesting themes under
those generalized them. By doing this you come to know about the topics
of your interest in the priority wish list.
Step 3: Ask questions about those topics of
interest?
So it is a time to think about asking questions
yourself about the topics of interest. These questions you need investigate
further in your project, think about these questions in details and try to
think it's relevance to other topics of interest.
Step 4: Now it is a time to think about your research question
viability.
Once you have the questions of interest, try to think
about it's sensibility and appropriateness about answering
the question. Here 'Viability' is whether the project is manageable
to do at your institute or not and the timeline required to do such a
project.
Step 5: Final choice be careful.
After going through stage 4 several times, you will
think about possible viable projects options. The last question but very
important question ask yourself : Does the topic really exciting you or not?.
For this question your answer need to be 'YES'. You need to be live up with
this topic for few months or possibly for one year in case of postgraduate
people and it requires 3 years for doctoral students.
