CTE 048: Criminology: Inside the Criminal Mind

9 - 12
Provider: BYU Independent Study
Instructor-guided learning
In this course, students will be given the rare opportunity to climb inside the mind of a criminal and examine the ideas and motivations at work. The mental state of a criminal can be affected by many different aspects of life—psychological, biological, sociological—all of which have differing perspectives and influences. Students will investigate not only how these variables affect the criminal mind but also how the criminal justice system remains committed to upholding the law through diligence and an uncompromising process.
