Question

Students are expected to write one concise and succinct  paper of 10 double-spaced pages of text (page numbers included) without going over the 12-page maximum. (Note: A cover page, abstract page and a work cited page do not count towards the 10-page minimum paper length requirement). The paper shall be written in APA 7th edition, Times New Roman 12-point with 1 inch margins (left, right, top and bottom) with indented paragraphs. 

The paper should synthesize major ideas and themes outlined in the readings and lectures and reflect critical analysis. For this project, students will choose a contemporary investigatory method used by police and/or forensic scientists, using only articles from academic journals, official government publications, and reputable trade publications, to discuss in detail the entire criminal investigative process used in the method chosen, ensuring to incorporate major ideas and themes outlined in the readings and lectures.
