Basically not. First, the teacher will give you some topics, from which you can choose, and then make the opening report. Only when the teacher has passed, can you start writing a paper or designing an experiment or project. Secondly, even if you don't choose the topic given to you by the teacher, the direction you choose must be recognized by your thesis supervisor. The head teacher saw that you chose the wrong direction, how could he let you do it and then wait for your thesis defense?
My graduation project didn't follow the school, but went to Lanzhou University to work with the tutor there. The direction is not biased at all, which is more meaningful for exercise. But because he didn't study with me (also 2 1 1), he only gave it to Liang ~ ~
Be careful, brother.
