Case Study: This Capstone class is a culmination of everything you have been exposed to at AIU, especially in your criminal justice coursework. For your Capstone project, you will select a single topic to work with through IP1, IP2, IP3, IP4 and IP5. You begin in IP1 by selecting your topic and then writing a 2-3 page paper that explains why it is a problem that needs addressing in the criminal justice system. It will be helpful to select a topic that you are passionate about because you will spend a lot of time over the next five weeks researching it. If you do not know what topic to select, then here are some ideas for you to consider:

Racial profiling
Forensic profiling
Tasers and decreased injuries
Prison job training and recidivism
Body cameras and liability reduction
High speed vehicle pursuits & liability
Solitary confinement and mental health
