Project examples
Requirements
Students can complete a substantial consulting project for your organization over the placement period. We suggest providing a starting project, but as the placement goes on there may be other duties or projects the student is asked to complete as well. Providing a central project creates structure for the internship, and gives the student (and company) a tangible goal.
Students in Colorado State University Global's Criminal Justice and Law Enforcement Administration program can complete projects for a range of areas. Project examples that students can complete may include, but are not limited to:
- Develop agency resources, such as social media campaigns. Information packages. Sourcing local credible online resources. Develop tip sheets or guidelines.
- Assisting with the development of an agency policy (e.g., volunteer policy), review & implementation of policy. For example for the Department of Justice and Regulation, and in Youth Justice.
- Research, literature reviews, data collection, data analysis, report writing, evaluation.
- Ongoing project with a startup caregiving company developing software for anonymous reporting of child sex offenders
- Problem solving human resource issues and developing surveys to scan court users for a neighbourhood justice center
- Emergency planning and management. Collaborative justice sector responses to emergency crisis. Developing solutions for workplace knock on effects.
- Innocence project - research on behalf of the wrongfully convicted
