The purpose of research paper deals with a factual type question, one that will result in a data intensive paper.  Narrowing the Topic of your Research Paper If your paper is to be of any value at all, it must discuss the topic in some depth. Depth of treatment rather than scope of coverage is the desirable goal here; to achieve this, narrow your topic in such a way that you can make significant statements about the topic within the prescribed number of pages. Ex. Fraternities (general topic) How can you narrow it down? Assuming that you are allowed a choice of topic, here are some points to consider: The topic should be of importance; otherwise, it will not be worth the time and effort you will be required to put into the paper. The topic should be of personal interest to you. The topic should be interesting and intelligible to the general reader; for his reason, avoid topics which are highly technical or specialized. Ex. “Laminar Flow of Fluid through a Helical Conduit.” “English Deism and the Development of Mythological Syncretism” The topic should acquaint you with cross-section of source materials. The topic should be manageable scale, i.e., it can be satisfactorily completed under the conditions and constraints prescribed by the syllabus. Take note of the next slide: 1. Length of research paper: the length of the beginner paper usually ranges from 15-20 double- spaced typewritten pages. 2. Duration of the research paper project: the beginner calendar usually allots 6 weeks for the entire project, of which only 3 weeks are to be spent on research work both in the library and in the field. 3. Availability of research sources. General Topic of Narrowed Down Narrowed Down Interest Topic Further Philippine Contemporary Pinoy Rock Music Phil.
