Description

Criminology is the scientific study of crime. Students will study various aspects of crime and the criminals. This class will examine such items as crime statistics, various theories behind the cause of crime and why criminals commit them. This class goes hand-in-hand with the disciplines of psychology, sociology, and anthropology. Students will also look at specific criminals in hopes of identifying various typologies that some infamous criminals have used.
