CRJ 451 - Effective Policing Practices

Semester Hours: 3
Evidence-based policing calls for police departments to utilize scientific policing research to determine the most appropriate policing practices for their jurisdiction. In addition, it encourages in-house program evaluations to determine if such practices are having the intended effect. This course will explore the major findings in policing research and how they may be applied at the local level. Students will also discuss the strength of the findings as well as the political pitfalls and practicality of implementing the programs that research indicates are effective means of policing.

Pre-requisites: CRJ 140 - Introduction to Criminal Justice , CRJS 231 - Criminology and Deviance  and SOCP 335 - Research Methods for the Behavioral Sciences .
