Challenges and Lessons Learned from Transatlantic Collaboration in Criminological Research & Teaching

Session Submission Type: Roundtable

Abstract

This roundtable aims to bring together scholars that are interested in collaboration between EU and US universities. The discussion will address research, teaching, institutional administration and transdisciplinary cooperation with non-academic partners. It is our intention that based on concrete examples from formalization processes between EU and US partners, we can generate a set of new ideas that can improve transatlantic collaboration in the above mentioned categories. The discussion of practices and ideas will provide an insight on how to improve existing relationships and create new ones between transatlantic partners.
