Criminology at the scene - extended

Crime and the social conditions which drive or suppress criminal behaviour vary from place to place. Criminology at the Scene is designed to break down the artificial barriers of understanding crime in different contexts which can incubate in a purely classroom setting. Criminology at the Scene takes advantage of existing linkages the Australian National University has with national and global institutions to provide a unique experience in applied criminology. Criminology at the Scene (Extended) offers students the opportunity to undertake comparative fieldwork in two locales. Held during the Winter Session, students will engage directly with academics and practitioners operating in distinctly different environments (e.g. urban and rural Australia, or the US and Canada). Students should note they are responsible for their personal travel and associated costs. Contact the course convener for details of the next field school. Travel requirement: Students will only be permitted to travel outside of Canberra upon completion of ANU required documentation, including, where required, the travel to a high risk destination form and the approval of all documentation by the relevant delegate. Disclaimer: Applicants are advised that due to circumstances beyond the University's control (for example, specific international security concerns and international health crises) it may not be possible for students to commence or complete this course as advertised.
