What do criminologists do?
What will be an ideal response?
A criminologist is "one who studies crime, criminals, and criminal behavior." However, the term generally is applied to individuals who hold advanced degrees in criminology or a related field (sociology, psychology, etc.) and who study crime, criminal behavior, and crime trends. There are a wide variety of jobs available in the field of criminology. For example, criminologists may be college or university professors, work for a federal agency (e.g., the National Institute of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics, Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention), work for a private research organization (e.g., RAND, Search Group, Inc., The Police Foundation), act as a public advocate, work for a politician or legislative body, or work for a civic organization. Criminologists may also work in the criminal justice system, as a police officer, probation or parole officer, prison program director, or victims' advocate.
