SOCI 431 - Research on Violence

Institution:

University of Delaware

Subject:

Sociology

Description:

Violence is a very common part of modern life. It pervades many aspects of our social interactions, and dominates political discourse and policy issues. The purpose of this course is to critically examine the nature and patterns of violence. A key element of the course that distinguishes it from other courses is that there is a statistical lab component that will be devoted to examining the epidemiology and etiology of violence using read data sets. Therefore, this class is not just Lecture based, but places equal emphasis on statistical techniques to answer empirical questions about violent offending and victimization. PREREQ: SOCI301
