犯罪学文学士-Florham Campus

欢迎来到弗洛勒姆学院的犯罪学课程。社会科学与历史系现在很高兴提供犯罪学文学士学位。犯罪学是对犯罪和社会不法行为根源的研究。早期的犯罪学家认为，犯罪是基于个人自由意志的一种选择，但该领域已扩展到包括对犯罪的生物学，心理和社会学解释。贫穷，家庭结构和资本主义是人们广泛讨论的犯罪根源之一。犯罪学家考虑了促使罪犯动机的因素以及犯罪对受害者和整个社会的影响。通过研究犯罪原因，犯罪学家可以提供切实可行的解决方案，以减少甚至预防某些类型的犯罪。犯罪学家在评估刑事司法政策（例如梅根法（Megan's Laws），对毒品犯
Criminology is the study of the root causes of crime and deviant behavior in society. Early criminologists believed that crime was a choice based on an individual's free will, but the field expanded to include biological, psychological and sociological explanations of crime. Poverty, family structure, and capitalism are among some of the widely debated root causes of crime. Criminologists consider what motivates offenders as well as the impact of crime on victims and society as a whole. By studying the causes of crime, criminologists can offer practical solutions to reduce or even prevent certain types of crime. Criminologists have been instrumental in evaluating criminal justice policies such as Megan's Laws, mandatory sentencing for drug offenders and Three Strikes laws.
