Succinct Thesis Statement Must The Introduction H

TOPIC: How has police brutality changed over the years?

Reflect: This week, we will continue the process of
creating a professional research proposal. You will again apply what you
have learned in POL470, this course, and your other political science
courses to the development of this research proposal. Specifically, the
introduction of your research proposal should provide your audience with
a clear understanding of what you want to accomplish, and they should
have a sense that this topic is important to you and that you are
excited about this research and the potential results. In addition, the
introduction should provide your audience with more information about
your research question, and you should explain your research hypothesis
or hypotheses. The additional information should also link your topic
and hypothesis to the broader academic fields of study that encompass
your research. Additionally, the introduction should explain what
research designs/methods will be utilized in your research project.
Finally, your proposal should determine some of the potential benefits
that could result or accrue from your study. The introduction is an
excellent opportunity to convince other political science professionals
that you know what you are doing, that your topic is worth the effort,
and that you will add something significant to the knowledge base of the
profession of political science.
