Then there's the benefit many MBAs don't talk about. MBAs make more money -- at least, they make more money in the beginning, says Muhammad Abdullah, former director of the MBA program at Pfeiffer University in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Varying Theories on Crime. Many theories have been developed to explain criminal behavior. While some theories are not as common, others have evolved and are used in many criminal studies today. Modern criminologists combine the most germane aspects of sociology, psychology, anthropology, and biological theories to advance their understanding of criminal behavior.
Most policy-making in criminal justice is based on criminological theory, whether the people making those policies know it or not. In fact, most of the failed policies (what doesn't work) in criminal justice are due to misinterpretation, partial implementation, or ignorance of criminological theory. Much time and money could be saved if only policymakers had a thorough understanding of criminological theory.
