继犯罪心理之后，他来了请闭眼，又让美国名校马里兰大学帕克分校，和犯罪心理再次走进了我们的世界。作为薄教授的脑残粉，我不得不深究一下，薄教授是如何养成的。

犯罪学（Criminology），是一门以犯罪现象为研究对象的学科。广义上还包括专门寻找犯罪行为出现的实际原因，以提供一个方法减轻犯罪行为对社会的影响。

马里兰大学 ，是一所位于美国东部小城学院公园市的大型公立综合性全国大学，成立于1856年，提供本科、硕士、博士、文凭课程（Certificate）四种学位类型；该校与华盛顿特区离约8里。马里兰大学系统是美国第12大大学系统，由13所马里兰高等教育机构组成的大学系统。马里兰大学公园分校是马里兰大学系统十四所高等教育机构中历史最久、最大、最好的一所，同时也是整个大华盛顿地区最大的一所高校，该校被评为公立常春藤校之一。

马里兰大学公园分校顶尖专业：南北战前美国文学、性与性别、等离子体、原子、犯罪学、计算机。

马里兰大学的Department of Criminology Criminal Justice犯罪与形式司法 有本科研究生和博士三种学位。

和多学校专业一样，MU的博士可以接受学士学位申请。该系与南京师范大学设有联合MA项目，属于国内最早开设的犯罪学硕士项目。该项目的要求为TOEFL100 雅思7。我检阅了目前在读的这些学生，突然发现也有个叫Simon的亚洲面孔，有点小惊喜，他也是萌萌哒。毕业于CUNY?John Jay College。马里兰大学该专业的学生以女性偏多，华裔目测只见到一位在读的PHD助研，男生。具体信息网站有CV我不便透露太多，和大家分享一下他的基本学术背景，以便想要申请该校的同学以作参考。

Research：（马里兰大学研究方向Crime and Justice Decision Making）

犯罪与司法形成

Understanding decision-making processes is central to the field of criminology and criminal justice. Research by our faculty addresses a variety of decisions made by offenders, victims, and criminal justice agents (police, courts, corrections, and governments), and their consequences. Our faculty members are engaged in multidisciplinary approaches to studying decision making which cut across multiple contexts and issues in the field。

Crime Control and Prevention犯罪防控

A central purpose of criminal justice, as well as other public and private policies, is the control and prevention of crime. CCJS faculty and students develop and test strategies to reduce crime, especially by conducting field experiments. These experiments have examined policies as diverse as arrests for domestic violence, free legal counsel at bail hearings, diverting property offenders into drug treatment courts, and sending messages back to cyber-attackers trying to hack into computer accounts. These tests use strong methods to test leading theories of crime and its prevention。

Juvenile Delinquency青少年犯罪

Youths under the age of 18 are responsible for a disproportionate share of crime. Understanding the causes of juvenile delinquency and developing methods to control it are central concerns for Criminologists. CCJS faculty members conduct basic research on the causes of delinquency, including efforts to understand how individual, peer, and school characteristics influence delinquency. They also conduct applied research, working collaboratively with school, community, and criminal justice practitioners, to develop and test promising approaches to delinquency prevention。

Life-Course Criminology生命犯罪

Life-course criminology focuses on the interplay of criminal behavior and general life-course development, investigating both the causes and consequences of crime. CCJS faculty members have been among the leaders in the establishment of the life-course perspective for investigating the causes of criminal careers, of persistence in and desistance from crime, and of unusually late onset offending. They have studied the consequences of crime for educational attainment, employment, marriage and divorce, child bearing and parenting, and health and mortality。

Violence暴力

The problem of violence presents unique challenges to researchers and policy-makers; including rationality of violence decision-making, whether traditional crime interventions would reduce violence, whether perpetrator-victim relationships complicate violence-reduction efforts, and how responding to political violence should differ from responses to street violence. Our facultys research in this area uses a wide range of approaches and draws upon expertise from multiple disciplines to better understand violent behavior and the optimal responses to violence。

其实美国大学的项目投资者都是政府和企业，此刻我遥想了新京皇家国立大学的机械专业实验室7台设备5台坏掉2台是非常陈旧无法使用，这是谁的伤痛。

在美国，除了马里兰大学是该项目的翘楚学校外，很多大学的犯罪学专业都是非常棒的。
