CRJ 378 - Research Methods and Data Analysis in Criminal Justice (3)

Data-driven, evidence-based crime policy and practice. Whether responding to incidents as they unfold, trying to determine places and times experiencing a disproportionate amount of crime, or guiding the efficient allocation of limited policing resources, crime analysis now plays a central role in American policing at the local, state, federal, and international levels. This class focuses on pattern identification and problem analysis, focusing on identifying short-term crime problems and understanding long-term problems. Students will learn how to collect, organize, analyze, and interpret quantitative and qualitative data using primary and secondary data sources and research techniques, as well as how to present analytical results effectively.
