Project Description: The session long project (SLP) consists of an investigation of a country: it can be either an industrialized country (other than the United States), or an advanced developing country (like China); please do not choose a developing country (like Iraq). The relationship between the country's health and demographics will be addressed.

SLP #1: Identify your selected country and answer the following questions:

1. Provide a "snapshot" description of your selected country. Include its geographic characteristics, majority and minority cultural groups. Describe the country size in square miles or square kilometers, the current population and population density, and the population size of the largest city.

2. What year was the most recent census done? Is it periodic or continuous and how is it accomplished?

ASSIGNMENT EXPECTATIONS: Please read before completing assignments.

• Assignment should be approximately 2 pages in length (double-spaced).
• Please use major sections corresponding to the major points of the assignment, and where appropriate use sub-sections (with headings).
• Remember to write in a scientific manner (try to avoid using the first person except when describing a relevant personal experience).
• Quoted material should not exceed 10% of the total paper (since the focus of these assignments is on independent thinking and critical analysis). Use your own words and build on the ideas of others.
• When material is copied verbatim from external sources, it MUST be properly cited. This means that material copied verbatim must be enclosed in quotes and the reference should be cited either within the text or with a footnote.
• Use of peer-reviewed articles is strongly recommended. Websites as references should be minimal.
