Crime and the Education Factor
The purpose of this project is to re-examine whether or not the
level of education of a person possesses impacts how likely they
will commit a crime. Past studies have found that as education
increases, willingness to commit crime decreases. The results of the studies
would add to public conversations about the benefits of increasing the
education of the population and its impact on its crime rate.

What Motivates Hackers to Commit Crime?
Cyber crime has become the most dangerous crime to occur in the
