What it covers

This unit enables students to understand the problems with sentencing decision-making and the role of artificial intelligence in sentencing. Students will acquire a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the role of big data in law enforcement and how the internet is increasingly used as both a tool to commit and detect crime. A key aspect of the unit involves analysing the role that technology can have in developing new criminal sanctions, especially in the context of alternatives to prison and community corrections orders.
