Term Paper Project

Your term paper will be related to one of the course talks. This can take on a variety of forms including a review of literature and mathematical or computational explorations. See me if you have questions on your topic.

Your paper will include a cover sheet with a title and your name. The body of the paper will be between 1500 and 2500 words (5 to 8 pages) printed with double-spaced 12-point proportionally spaced type. The main text body should be printed with full justification. Any figures or graphs should be inserted into the body. A bibliography of references, including Web pages, will follow the text body. Your paper will have 1-inch margins and the pages of the text body and bibliography will be numbered starting with the first page of the text body. You should secure the pages of your paper with a staple in the upper left-hand corner, rather than using a report cover. Click here for the grading rubric.
