Abstract The abstract should summarize the project and major findings in a concise paragraph.

Introduction The introduction should frame the public health issue in a few concise paragraphs. It should end with a statement of purpose. The statement of purpose should be a clear and concise statement of the primary objective(s) of the work.

Literature Review
The literature review should cover the major relevant literature (or all of the literature if there are few relevant publications) in a clear, concise manner. It should end with a research question or questions. (25 professional journal articles cited)

Methods The methods section should explain, in a clear and organized fashion, how the project was conducted. The population under study should be clearly delineated, including the sampling frame, if appropriate, and sample sizes. The statistical methods and software used for analysis should be stated.

Results The results section should contain tables, charts and figures, as appropriate, to display study results. The major findings should be reported in the text, referring the reader to the appropriate tables, charts, and figures. Results should be reported clearly and logically, without discussion. If not an empirical work, the results should present the qualitative or literature based information on which the paper�s argument is based.

Discussion The discussion section should be a well-organized discussion of the major findings and should include comparison with previous studies and possible explanations for findings. The major limitations of the study and their possible effects on the study results should be presented. It should end with conclusions and recommendations. The conclusions/recommendations section should state the implications of the major findings and may include public health policy or suggestions as to how the finding informs a relevant public health policy issue.

[7] Any source the student uses in the composition of the assignments/papers must be cited fully and accurately. The University describes Academic Dishonesty on page 49 of the 2015 general catalog. Any failure (whether accidental and/or intentional) to follow the standards of scholarly accuracy constitutes dishonesty and will result in a mark of �U� for this course.

[9] Students are advised to study the style of research articles from major peer-review journals, such as the American Journal of Public Health, American Journal of Epidemiology, and the New England Journal of Medicine to review examples of methods, results, and discussion sections and to obtain ideas for the formatting of data tables.

[10] The MPH capstone is the work of a future public health professional; therefore it should be professional in all aspects. The thesis should be written for a public health audience that includes one or more of the following: researchers, policymakers, program directors, healthcare and other service providers, epidemiologists, intervention developers, and/or program evaluates. It should be methodologically rigorous, but addressed to a broad public health audience.
