Campus Course Code: CCJO 4354
UTTC Course Code: CCJO 4354
Campus: UT Permian Basin
Program: CCJO
Course Description

No other occupation provides the opportunity for abuse more than through the inappropriate actions of our police officers, prosecutors, and corrections officers. Our criminal procedural laws are satiated with examples of abuses of power and inappropriate actions of criminal justice personnel. This course is designed to examine specific ethical issues using past court cases and scenarios to determine appropriate ethical and moral behaviors. It will also provide techniques on how to instill appropriate behaviors, how to enforce and ensure the principles of ethical behavior within each individual and the collective group of institutions we call the criminal justice system.
