 The research project for this course requires you to identify a criminal justice professional field(Police Officer) in which you would be interested in pursuing a career. If you already work in the criminal justice field, you can use your current position as the basis for this project, however, you must select a different individual to interview. You may not interview yourself. 

  • You will be required to not only research various aspects of the selected field, but you must also interview an individual who currently works in the selected field.
  • When interviewing the professional working in the selected criminal justice field, you should consider asking the following types of questions:
  • Why did you decide to work in this field of criminal justice?
  • What are three key skills or competencies a person must possess to be successful in this field of criminal justice?
  • What steps should a person take to prepare him or herself for working in this field of criminal justice?
  • What types of substantive changes do you currently see occurring or foresee occurring within this field of criminal justice?
  • What types of technology do you use on a regular basis within this field of criminal justice?

The research project paper should consist of the following sections:

  • Introduction: This section identifies the criminal justice field that the student has selected and includes a brief description of why this field is of interest (recommended length: no more than one page).
  • Competencies: In this section, you will identify at least three competencies required for the selected criminal justice field and explain why each is important to the field. This section should be based upon research that you have conducted about the selected field and supported with at least two cited resources (recommended length: one page).
  • Professional interview: In this section, you will summarize the interview conducted with a professional working in their selected field of criminal justice. It is important for you to begin this section by identifying the person interviewed and his or her current position within the selected criminal justice field (recommended length: one to two pages).
  • Evaluation: In this section, you will evaluate the selected field of criminal justice by discussing the following questions and supporting the evaluation with cited resources (recommended length: one to two pages):
    • How did the competencies you identified for this field of criminal justice align or differ from the information obtained during the interview with a criminal justice professional?
    • What learning goal would you like to set for yourself during this course, month, or year based on the skill sets and requirements discovered during your research and based upon the interview with a criminal justice professional?

While the level of detail in each section of the research paper will vary, it is anticipated that the final paper will be approximately five to six pages in length, not counting the cover and reference pages.
