Dissertation Expression of Interest

You may access full guidance on Moodle. Please remember that this is NOT an assessed submission, but an Expression of Interest that allows us to pair you up with a supervisor. Therefore, do not be too concerned about it being detailed—we are simply asking to signal the general direction in which you wish to pursue your final year project.

When allocating supervisors, priority will be given to students who submit the form below by the end of Monday, 23 June 2025. You can still submit expressions of interest until the end of Monday, 8 September 2025.

If you are planning to take an intercalated study/work placement for the next academic year, submitting an expression of interest in this academic year is not required. Please refer to FAQ 2 on Moodle.

If you are a third-year student currently in an intercalated year and submitted your expression of interest form last year, you are expected to submit it again to confirm that you are still interested in pursuing the same project or to update your project.

If you have any questions, please email Dr Feng Mao (Feng.Mao@warwick.ac.uk).
