Honours topics
Half of your time as an honours student is spent working on a project. But first you have to find a project topic.
The "official" reference for projects proposed by potential supervisors is the CECS projects database.
There are projects there available for all levels of research, including short projects, summerscholarship projects, Honours projects, Masters and PhD projects. All potential research students at any level are urged to browse it.
If you see a project that looks interesting, email the potential supervisor about it. Don't be afraid to discuss possible variations to the listed project: what appears on the web site is generally more of a suggestion than a rigid specification.
You don't have to be constrained by what you see on the project website. If you have something that you would like to work on as a project, then feel free to discus it with the honours convener to see if it could form the basis of an honours project and to identify a possible supervisor. Look at the web pages of Computer Science staff to find out their research interests. Remember that projects may also be supervised by people outside the College, or even ontside the University: from CSIRO or NICTA, for instance.
