犯罪学概述

Criminologists use concepts 和 methods from social 和 behavioral sciences—social work, 社会学, 心理学, 政治科学, 法律研究, 历史, criminal justice—to explore the causes 和 consequences of criminal behavior. Our program is based on principles of social justice 和 will challenge students to analyze data on crime perpetration 和 victimization, to examine the impact of social inequality on definitions 和 control of human behavior, to examine the impact of legal 和 social policies on criminal behavior, 检查和评估犯罪预防, 控制模型, 以及罪犯治疗项目.

校友简介:汉娜·格罗斯16岁

“I wanted to pursue medical school 和 my double major in biology 和 criminology set me apart from other applicants. 作为未来的医生, I believe having knowledge of how society 和 culture impact 和 drive crime is crucial to underst和ing various populations. My criminology courses stimulated my interest in forensic medicine 和 these passions have carried through my first year of medical school.——汉娜·格罗斯16岁
