CRIMINAL JUSTICE AND CRIMINOLOGY
As Chair of the Department of Criminal Justice and Criminology it is my pleasure to welcome you to our website. I encourage you to explore it. You will see that our department is a vibrant center of teaching and research in the nationally ranked Andrew Young School of Policy Studies. It is an exciting place to study and work. If you have questions, I would be pleased to hear from you.

Inaugural Provost’s Visiting Scholars Announced
The Office of Faculty Affairs is pleased to announce the selection of the inaugural Provost’s Visiting Scholars. This program brings to Georgia State University promising and leading faculty from underrepresented minority groups for short-term visits. This program serves a two-fold purpose: these visiting scholars will enrich the intellectual life of the campus at the department level and above, and they will be positioned to communicate Georgia State University’s strengths to potential future faculty members, graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. In this way, the program will enhance ongoing faculty recruitment efforts.
