Before looking at the best and fresh topics for your thesis in electrical engineering, let us look what makes a good thesis topic.

This means that it is specific with clear boundaries on the scope of your paper. It clearly states the area of coverage, for example, electricity transmission, distribution, safety, maintenance, etc. The field of electric engineering is expansive and thus requires the writer to narrow down to a single topic.

With extensive studies in different areas, your topic must capture the attention of the reader. The aim is to set it apart from the others in the same area. A reader will only be interested if there is new information to be gotten from your paper.

A fresh idea means that it is making a contribution to the world of academics. Do not pick a topic that has been studied time and again. This is only allowed in cases where you are providing a unique angle to the topic. Otherwise, look for new challenges or immerging issues in electrical engineering and write about them.

Some of the latest ideas include

• Enhancing efficiency in electrical devices
• Using different types of inverters for critical functions
• The electronic band structure of semiconductors
• Green electric power generation
• The future of electricity transmission
• Adapting technology to improve efficiency in electricity transmission
