University of Maryland, we’re discovering new knowledge about what drives people to commit crimes and how they can be stopped. Working with police, correctional programs, courts and all levels of government, we’re developing strategies to lower crime rates across our country, and to make the system more fair. We’re inspiring Maryland pride by working to correct injustices throughout the state. We are turning imagination into innovation by getting dangerous weapons off our streets through partnerships with leading research organizations such as the National Institute of Justice. We’re transforming the student experience by leveraging our location near the heart of the nation’s justice system to give students unmatched access to internship, research and career opportunities.
