WGS 203H - Sexual Violence and Aggression


Credits: 4
Even though there have been considerable monetary and time resources spent on violent crimes by local, state and federal agencies, law enforcement have had a difficult time prosecuting the sexually violent criminal because of societal views on personal freedoms. This course is a systematic introduction to the causation of violent offending and extreme aggressive behavior and the treatment and incarceration of this type of criminal. The readings and course framework will stress a criminological approach to sexual violence and aggression.
