CMJ 310 Community Policing
This course is about policing at its most important and challenging levels–in neighborhoods and communities across the nation and abroad. We will discuss community policing, problem solving, COPPS, control and prevention of crime, disorder and fear. We will also examine daily processes and tactics, how and why agencies are revolutionizing their traditional philosophy and operations, policing in an information age, and how the economy is impacting policing practices and new information concerning COPPs initiatives across the United States.
