Rutgers Center for the Study of Public Security (CSPS)



Dr. Leslie Kennedy, Director
Dr. Joel Caplan, Associate Director


Founded in 2002 and based at the School of Criminal Justice, the Rutgers Center on Public Security (RCPS) specializes in applying geospatial technologies to scholarly research. It offers a multidisciplinary approach to the academic study and practical application of ways in which democratic societies can effectively address crime, terrorism, and other threats to public security. This involves the prevention of, protection from, and response to natural or human-made events that could endanger the safety or security of people or property in a given area. In an unprecedented way, the RCPS engages all parts of the university and community agencies in exploring the needs and major consequences of heightened security.
