Project Requirements

The total length of the research project is five pages of actual text and analysis, not including title or references pages. The project must have a title page and a references page and generally follow APA format. The idea with using APA format is to provide academic quality to your work. The project is to be in 12 point, double-spaced Times New Roman font. It is not necessary to use footnotes or endnotes; simply provide a citation in parentheses. Your project must have at least 6 sources not to include a textbook or an encyclopedia (including websites such as Wikipedia or Investopedia); at least 2 sources must be peer reviewed. Online resources are acceptable as long as they are scholarly in nature. The grade for option 1 will be based on the written project submitted.

A sample structure for this option is:

1. Title page

2. Introduction (1 page). Introduce your topic and relate it to the course.

3. Literature Review (2-3 pages). What does the existing literature or research say about your research topic?

4. Application and Analysis (1-2 pages). What are your own thoughts, analysis, and experiences about your research topic? Use at least 10 economic key terms in this section.

5. Conclusion (1 page)
