The final Research Paper for this course addresses the final learning outcome for this course: Compare an event or policy related to medicine or public health in the United States to a similar event or policy in another nation or country.
For example, a student’s final Research Paper might compare the public response to AIDS in the United States and Uganda, or the practice of midwifery in colonial America and early modern France.
Students are encouraged to use one of their first two essays as a basis for this assignment. That means, a student who chose to focus on race and medical experimentation for an early writing assignment might compare that practice in some other nation or time. The essay will be written in a format that clearly compares two things, so it is not possible to simply add more paragraphs to the earlier essay. However, all of the sources cited in the original essay can remain. The student will need to find more sources for the comparison. In other words, if a student cited three sources from the textbook about the Tuskegee syphilis experiments, they could use those sources in the final paper and add three more sources about whatever they are comparing the Tuskegee example to.
