In Module 7, you will have a paper due that focuses on a public health topic. To make sure that you are prepared for that assignment, in this module (Module 2) you will submit a proposal of the topic you plan to write your paper on.

This proposal must be at least 4 sentences and includes the following information:

1. A topic related to public health that you would like to focus on in your paper
2. At least one factor (drawing on what you’ve learned in the course to this point) that contributes to this topic
3. Why you think this is an important topic

Once you submit your topic proposal, you will receive feedback from your instructor. You may receive guidance to change or refine your topic proposal. As the course progresses, you may also decide that you would like to change your topic statement. Any modifications to your original topic proposal must be submitted by Module 4/Week 4 and include an additional sentence explaining why you are requesting the change.

If you would like to see the guidelines for completing your paper, please review Paper on Public Health Topic Guidelines.

Compose your work in a .doc or .docx file type using a word processor (such as Microsoft Word, etc.) and save it frequently to your computer.  For those assignments that are not written essays and require uploading images or PowerPoint slides, please follow uploading guidelines provided by your instructor.

Check your work and correct any spelling or grammatical errors. When you are ready to submit your work, click “Submit Assignment” in the upper right corner. Click on “Browse,” browse your computer, and select your file. Click “Open” and verify the correct file name has appeared next to the Browse button. Enter your comments, if any, in the Comments area.
