Course description

Australian Crime Policy aim to control crime problems using strategies and tactics informed by sound, scientific evidence and rigorous program evaluation. In this course students learn about the process of evidence-based crime policy development from the initial triggering event to translation into practice and evaluation. The course also gives students practical skills to recognise, assess, and generate evidence-based crime policies across a range of different crime and justice domains such as police, courts, corrections, and in related areas such as drug and alcohol treatment, corporations and crime prevention.
