I don't have anything witty to say, that just sucks. I'd report him to the higher-ups.
There's no guarantee they'll believe you, but it's better than doing nothing.
I hate to be the downer, but this is how academia works. Ph.D students get their work stolen/have credit taken all the time, which took so much more planning than a thesis. I'm not saying it's right or that it doesn't totally suck, but I really doubt anyone is going to do anything. Sorry OP, it's a shitty world out there.
That professor was no Einstein, so he had to plagiarize.
Hopefully OP emailed it to the professor, this way OP has proof
can someone explain what this one's about ? I don't understand :/
She asked a teacher to look over their work, and the teacher liked it so much that he stole the credit for doing it.
Incorrect, 7. She told him the general subject she was going to write the thesis on. Theses are incredibly important for passing courses in college-level settings, and subjects are quite hard to find that you'd be willing to invest time in and be able to succeed in. Basically the professor stole a very long time of planning.
No, OP told his/her professor what topic he/she was going to use for their thesis paper. The professor liked it so much that he decided to write his own paper on the topic.
Professors have to write their own papers? o_o
If they're doing a Masters as well as teaching, yeah. Relatively common
How did they get the teaching position without the degree?
You can teach with a bachelor as long as you are working for your master.
well it sounds like if he really likes your subject then you'll probably get a good score on it. I hope he doesn't steal all the credit though, that would be shitty. FYL OP.
That's a nutty professor!
Bring it up with the Dean?
Tell him to cite your work lol
That just sucks major balls. Nothing you can do?
Colleges revoke degrees due to plagiarism, yet your professor is plagiarizing a student. What is wrong with people?
Why does the professor need the idea? Is he going to write an article?

This happened to my roommate when she started her PhD! It took her an extra 8 months to find another lab after the experience. You need to report that professor for stealing your idea. Don't let the same thing happen to you.
