determined13 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Any opinions on the strongest MPP programs in Criminal Justice Policy in the US or elsewhere..(aside from Harvard/Kennedy)? Would appreciate any feedback -- thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZacharyObama Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I would say that this tends to be more of an area of study covered by sociology (criminology) than public policy. Just scanning briefly some schools seem to even offer specific degrees in criminology. I wouldn't be surprised if some schools had joint programs. http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-humanities-schools/criminology-rankings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradSchoolAlibi Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Carnegie Mellon has a strong faculty, led by A. Blumenstein (famous for the Gun Diffusion Hypothesis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
determined13 Posted December 14, 2012 Author Share Posted December 14, 2012 Thanks, Gradschoolalibi, that's helpful. I know Professor Blumenstein's work, and have been impressed as well by some CMU alumni's work in criminal justice policy. UCLA also has a strong faculty, but it's very focused on drug policy. It's a narrow specialty but I'm very passionate about it.... Thanks again and good luck... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
