CJ 630 - Crime Control and Environmental Design

Credits: 3

This class is based on the idea that the proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the incidence and fear of crime, and an improvement in the quality of life. Crime Prevention is defined as the anticipation, recognition and appraisal of a crime risk and the initiation of some action to remove or reduce it. This course examines the role that environmental design takes in crime prevention as well as the role that law enforcement officers can play in an advisory role to the community.
