RESEARCH PAPER: TOPIC THESIS AND REFERENCES PAGE (SIMPLE
BIBLIOGRAPHY)
OVERVIEW
Your paper must involve the study of terrorism or homeland security, it cannot be a general
criminal justice, foreign policy or history paper. The topic must substantively address an issue
related to terrorism or homeland security so your sources must focus on and align to that topic.
You need to select a topic in the terrorism and homeland security arena and craft a draft thesis.
You need to identify your 5-7 sources to support this topic and submit as a References page in
APA format. The information given in your References page/Simple Bibliography must be
sufficient to retrieve the source easily. You should follow APA format and leverage the Liberty
University APA resources page to guide your citations. Ideally you should use the Falwell
Library and many available databases within the Library as your primary search tool to find
relevant scholarly sources for your topic. Carefully research these sources to ensure they are
scholarly. Also, be sure to read the bibliographic references and use your wisdom. In addition,
your sources should develop along the topic identified for the paper, so they should not be on
many topics but aligned to a core direction for your paper.
