In-depth Paper The in-depth paper can be considered a “deep dive” into the conceptual/theoretical framework of a subject about which a cohort member wants to learn more about than what can be covered in the course introduction (first three units of class meetings). The paper is primarily a secondary research paper in which the significant majority of the material in the paper is based on scholarly material above and beyond the material covered in the course. The course material can certainly be included in the indepth paper but should be used as a foundation or context and be a minor portion of the paper. In selecting the topic for the in-depth paper a cohort member should (1) consider how research on the topic can produce the knowledge and information appropriate to developing the application assignment for the course – it is highly desirable, albeit not mandatory, that a cohort member use his or her in-depth research to help develop a conceptual / theoretical foundation for the application – and (2) view the topic of the in-depth paper as an exploration of a possible dissertation topic – producing two or more in-depth papers that relate to a possible dissertation topic may help a cohort member get a solid and early start to his or her dissertation. The in-depth paper, however, is NOT a practitioner look at a concrete problem. The topic of the paper should look at the conceptual / theoretical and DEL Learning Guide – Page 14 of 38 DOCTOR OF EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP abstraction of areas of interest.

More specifically, the in-depth paper should Identify the key points in the research material reviewed Synthesize the key points to the extent practicable by weaving elements together into one or more themes Provide his or her conclusions about the research in a clear and concise manner Point out his or her perspective on the stewardship elements o
