CRIM 4990

Students will carry out a detailed investigation of a criminological topic of interest. They will conduct the investigation, under the supervision of a KPU faculty member with expertise in the area, in the form of a literature review. Students will identify and review relevant sources of information to develop a comprehensive understanding of their topic. They will submit to their Honours supervisor a final paper reviewing the literature relating to their topic and identifying potential research questions for further investigation. Note: The literature review and the research issues identified in this course will be used for the completion of a research proposal in CRIM 4995 and completion of a thesis in CRIM 4970.
