| Mar 30, 2016 at 17:34 | comment | added | MathStudent | @JeffE For example, explaining some basic theory, call it abstract algebra, and then introducing its applications to galois theory or algebraic topology... | |

| Mar 30, 2016 at 16:56 | comment | added | Anonymous Mathematician | What is the alternative? Original research? The only way to get a definitive answer is to ask your advisor or others in your department, but I'm confident that an expository undergraduate thesis would be fine. | |
