Homicide Research Center

The mission of the Center for Homicide Research is to promote greater knowledge and understanding of the unique nature of homicide through sound empirical research, critical analysis, and effective community partnerships.

The Center for Homicide Research partners with law enforcement agencies across the country to provide valuable resources that increase case solvability, aid in articulating issues surrounding homicide and reduce the incidence of homicide.

The Center for Homicide Research offers one of the finest internship programs in the United States. Qualifying students come from undergraduate, graduate and law schools. This is a multi-disciplinary opportunity, though majors typically include sociology, criminology, psychology, social psychology, forensic psychology, or law.
