Abstract

The crime of human trafficking has received increased international attention as a social problem and area of scholarly study over the past decade. This study seeks to explore the extent to which human trafficking is a subject of study in current undergraduate criminal justice and criminology curricula in the United States. Examined were web-based documents for 100 criminology and criminal justice bachelor degree programs in colleges and universities throughout the country. The programs were sampled from the U.S. News and World Report 2011 list of "Best Colleges." The investigation revealed only eight courses from seven programs that covered human trafficking issues. Suggestions for developing and adding courses on human trafficking in criminology and criminal justice curricula are made, as well as suggestions for future research.
