There are a few elements that need to be included on a title page for a research paper:
The title of the paper. This should be concise and reflect the main focus of the research.
The name of the author (or authors, if there are multiple authors).
The institutional affiliation of the author (or authors). This is usually the university or college where the research was conducted.
The date the paper was written.
A running head. This is a short version of the paper's title that is included at the top of each page.
Here is an example of a title page for a research paper:
