Research Paper:

Develop your research paper topic, research question and hypothesis. I do not "assign" topics as this is college and I want you to pick ANY subject within the framework of border security to pursue. There is NO NEED to send it to me for approval.

For this course you are to prepare your paper in a word document submit as an attachment (Times New Roman, Font 12-double space) using APA style format ("Resources" and APA info attached below). Your research paper should be 10-12 pages of content excluding your title page and reference page. A minimum of 10 outside PEER REVIEWED references required. Additionally, you are to include a title page, defined "abstract", and reference page. Your research paper must be an original work and you cannot recycle a paper that you prepared and submitted to any other class (refer to your "student handbook" for the University plagiarism policy).

Here is the SPECIFIC format I want you to use:

Cover Sheet

Abstract

Introduction

Literature Review

Methodology (You need to give me more than....qualitative methods were used....
