    Suggestion Thesis
AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around selecting a thesis topic for a graduate course in a quantum-related group focused on theoretical research without experimental equipment. The individual has a background in electrical and computational engineering and is seeking a topic that emphasizes engineering rather than pure physics. They express concern over their supervisor's inclination towards pure quantum physics topics, which does not align with their interests in computational approaches. Suggestions from the group highlight the importance of discussing potential topics with supervisors, as they can provide guidance tailored to the student's interests and institutional prospects. The individual is looking for topics that integrate computational methods with some physics elements, focusing on algorithms, coding, and programming.

Hello everyone, it's not really a technical issue, I just got into a graduate course, for a master degree, and I have to decide a thesis to work on. This group is quantum related, they do some quantum material research with computer on paper only, no other experimental equipment at all.
And...most of my background is under electrical and computational engineering, I am trying to find a topic that is not involving too much pure physics, but more about engineering,. I am currently doing research on it, but I thought it might be a good idea to seek for some suggestions here as well.
Please, any suggestions will be appreciated! Thank you!

Pick the one with the better advancement prospects for your institution and comfort level. Since this is very personal, we cannot really advise you.
The supervisor is most important here... most supervisors are happy to talk to prospective students: ask.

Thanks, well...the discussion with supervisor did not went too well, he is suggesting only pure quantum physics topics, as I hope to touch more computational engineering. Anyway, I am seeking for a topic that is somehow a little related to physics, but most of this work is dealing with algorithm, coding and program approaching. I am doing some searching, but not quite sure which fields are the right direction.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
