Rutgers describes 01:202:202 as examining police functions in contemporary society and tensions involving law enforcement/non-enforcement, social change and police attitudes/practices. The official course description lists 01:202:201 as prerequisite. A Spring 2025 online section syllabus covers policing history and organization, discretion, culture, minorities, ethics, patrol, investigations, police-client relations, law, technology and current events; its modality and grading do not establish Fall 2026 in-person section practices.
