Research Paper Assignments

Research papers are very intense and require a high level of organization, attention to detail, and interest in researching and writing about a specific topic. Your topic will be reviewed by an advisory committee to ensure it meets the parameters of the program. Before choosing to pursue a research paper, it is important to ask yourself: Do I have the energy to complete thorough research at the end of senior year? Can I keep myself motivated and on task for five weeks? Do I love writing long and extensive papers? This is an arduous but rewarding task for a small number of students.
