INSTRUCTIONS FOR RESEARCH PAPER
The student will complete a research paper addressing the primary issues a leader may or will face during any given major incident. Keep in mind we want to focus on all phases of an incident – mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery and all hazards. These issues will be from a broad spectrum, but also attempt to address issues that can result from or be found within the course objectives.
The student will write at minimum a 5-full page research-oriented paper in current APA format. The paper must include at least 5 sources (which should include the class textbooks and readings). The paper will be submitted through SafeAssign.
