The Criminology Academy

Welcome to our first official episode! This week we speak to Professors Eric Baumer from Penn State's Department of Sociology and Criminology and Min Xie from University of Maryland's Depart of Criminology and Criminal Justice. We touch on immigration, crime reporting by immigrant communities and crime trends over time. Eric and Min also discuss some new exciting projects they are working on with backing from the National Science Foundation and the National Institute of Justice. Eric and Min have been published in journals such as Criminology, Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency and the Journal of Quantitative Criminology. Music by: www.bensound.com

Hello everyone! Welcome to the Criminology Academy, where we are criminally academic! Our names are Jose and Jenn and we are doctoral students from the University of Colorado Boulder. This is a podcast on the field of criminology where we hope to bring in some of the best scholars and talk about their work in a way that is enjoyable for just about anyone. We will also talk to fellow graduate students about the life, from our challenges to our successes. Please join us on this academic adventure! P.S. Jose said he's a 2nd year in his intro which was factually correct at the time, he is now a 3rd year and Jenn is officially a doctoral candidate! Music by: www.bensound.com
