CategoryExplanation: Research and Evaluation
Description: NIJ is seeking applications for funding for research under its Visiting Fellowship Program. Through its support of criminal justice research funded under this program, NIJ not only advances knowledge on a variety of criminal justice topics, but also fosters the professional development of criminal justice researchers and professionals by providing them an opportunity to work closely with career and political Federal staff, contractors, grantees, and myriad other public and private organizations in Washington, DC. Most important, the Visiting Fellowship Program offers criminal justice professionals and researchers an opportunity to work full-time on research addressing criminal justice issues relevant to the work of NIJ and public policy.
