Assignment Instructions
For your research paper in this course, you will write an analytical research paper addressing a major issue of your choosing from Security Management covered in this course. As a research paper, your paper will have to answer a significant puzzle related to a course topic.
The length of the paper should be at least fifteen (15) pages in length. Be sure to include your reference list and to properly cite sources in APA throughout your paper. Your title and reference page are not counted in the minimum page length.
Title Page of the Paper: The title of your paper should be brief but should adequately inform the reader of your general topic and the specific focus of your research. Keywords relating to parameters, population, and other specifics are useful. The Title Page must include the title, name, course name and number, and Professor’s Name.
Introduction, Research Question, and Hypothesis: This section shall provide an overview of the topic that you are writing about, a concise synopsis of the issues, and why the topic presents a “puzzle” that prompts your research questions, which you will include. This section will end your introduction with your research question.
Review of the Literature: All research projects include a literature review to set out for the reader what knowledge exists on the subject under study and helps the researcher develop the research strategy to use in the study. A good literature review is a thoughtful study of what has been written, a summary of the arguments that exist (whether you agree with them or not), arranged thematically. At the end of the summary, there should still be gaps in the literature that you intend to fill with your research.
