  1. You are right, we lack in professionalism and justice because no matter how qualified one becomes in Pakistan, ethics are still left out due to absence of fear of judgement/punishment/morality.

    Tip1: Being ambitious is good and appreciated. But dont go so deeper and end up having an unyielding tough topic making your life harder. Think big, start small. Okay? For topics in bachelors, let me direct to some; have you thought about these? My suggestion is to think of yourself as the 'future leader' of structural engineering...not just a technical number cruncher.... 1. Highlighting the ordinary house construction mistakes and tackling them? like putting more steel always isnt good in a beam, like snap-failure of concrete floors killing people in factories, mosques and homes in pakistan? A sort of guide for public? Could go on publishing in media as well afterwards. 2. Environment? Value engineering/whole life cost, structural engineering solutions in pakistan to protect environment from construction effects??? What are the shortcoming. 3. Rehab of ordinary public homes to protect for future earthquakes? 4. Study of moderately mid to high rise or complex shape buildings that are dynamically sensitive. For example you could consider an important national building (faisal mosque ?) whose shape is very sensitive to dynamic loading (wind/seismic) and how the design was done and what are the your suggestions to improve? or the lessons learnt for future buildings of same kind. 5. 3d printing, what are the effects and how and at what scale it could be implemented in pak and what type of sector can use it? can we make better and cheap and environmentally friendly homes from it? if not now then may be in future? 6. structural health monitoring? 7. Preparing tables for beams, slabs that shows economy vs span for ordinary construction in pk? Could be distributed as served as a guide in design offices. For example google 'concrete center' span tables. 8. Structures and Terrorists! How would you protect important buildings in Pakistan from terrorist threat? Evacuation plans and structural engineering, blast resistant, progressive collapse, what material is better? Implementation plan? What are more sensitive national buildings?
