BS Criminology and Justice Studies in Criminology and Justice Policy

4 Years On Campus Bachelors Program

Drexel University

Program Overview

The Criminology & Justice Policy (C&JP) concentration grounds students in criminological theory and crime policy, as well as justice analytics, to help them identify, describe, and respond to current and emerging crime and security problems. A key goal of any rational crime policy is to maximize its benefits e.g., reducing crime while limiting its social costs, such as mass-incarceration, racial disparities, and violent backlashes. Through that lens, C&JP students will work with crime and police calls for service data, geo-tagged social media transmissions, and other sources of information to identify and explain crime trends, hotspots, and coldspots across given geographies; and they will put their theory to use as they learn to generate and test research hypotheses related to crime and justice policy outcomes.
