Crime Analysis at UWM

Jon Strelecki

If you are a fan of detective shows on TV, then you are familiar with that "A-Ha" moment. The point in the program where a clever investigator has an epiphany and suddenly piecing together a scattering of evidence, hunches and clues lead to the solving of a crime.

At UWM, there are classes being taught that help students learn how to analyze data in ways that really does solve crimes. It's all part of the field known as crime analysis. Host Tom Luljak speaks with Helen Bader School of Social Welfare Dean Stan Stojkovic.

Tom Luljak hosted UWM Today on WUWM for more than two decades and is the inaugural host of Curious Campus.
