Dear All, I have recently completed my course work for MS CEM. I have to choose a topic for Master Thesis. My area of interest is Project Controls, more towards Time, schedule control, using P6, Earned Value or anything? Saving Changes...

In my opinion EV has been done so much by so many, that it is a bit of a boring choice. Try to do something a little different. If I were in your situation I'd do something related to project controls in a feedback environment - what happens to control of a schedule where a small change tends to snowball into ever increasing delay, and how to place controls that "break" such a feedback.

Thank you so much. after some literature review, i have found out following as well.. inclined to select first one. What's your say.
? Comparisons /issues of various methodologies for determination of Construction Time and Extension of Time for Construction
Engineering Projects.
? Schedule Delay Analysis in Construction Projects: Window analysis or time impact analysis, as built –as planned Analysis using P6.
? Assessing Methodologies for Quantifying Lost Productivity: measured mile approach (project specific measurement), total cost method, comparative approach etc.

That third one appeals most - couldn't say why exactly, but it is what I'd choose. Saving Changes...
