Select a Research Topic
Selecting a research topic may seem simple, but it's easy to pick one that is too broad, over-researched, or un-researchable.
Try selecting an initial research topic that:
- Meets the assignment requirements
- Interests you
- Is appropriate in scope--not too broad or too narrow
RESEARCH TIP
Starting with a general area of interest is fine for your initial topic (Example: graphic design and typography). You will continue to refine and narrow your topic as you move through the research process.
Where Are We?
We are in step two of the research process: select a topic.
- Your initial topic is just a starting point--it will become increasingly refined and focused as you move through the research process.
