Staff-proposed MSc projects will be announced later by email.
Self-proposed MSc project proposals are done via the DPMT system. (Log in with your DICE credentials.)
You'll need to find a member of academic staff in Informatics who would be willing to supervise your self-proposed MSc project. That is, you must discuss (by email, phone or in person) your idea with members of academic staff in Informatics and get one of them to agree to act as supervisor for the project. This staff member will then register as potential supervisor for your project in the DPMT system. (Green button "Register..." at the bottom of the page.)
It is possible to file your project proposal in DPMT even if you have not yet found a supervisor for it. However, your project proposal must be filed before the proposal deadline (see timetable). Your supervisor(s) need to register for it (Green button "Register interest" at the bottom of the page) before the project selection deadline.
In case you want to do your self-proposed project with an external industrial partner as supervisor, then you'll still need an internal co-supervisor (i.e., an Informatics staff member) in addition to your external supervisor. (If your supervisor is a staff member at a different School at the University, then no co-supervisor is required.) See the guide for external supervisors here: link.
Even if you self-propose a project, you still need to register interest in other projects later until you are marked "suitable" for 5 projects (including your self-proposed one). You might not get your self-proposed project if the named supervisor ends up with too many projects to supervise. Thus you need fall-back options.
