The College has completed several academic research projects in collaboration with the four re-appointed scholars over the years in areas including positive thinking and emotional fitness training, enhancement of psychological wellness among police officers, reasons for suicide and preventive strategies, cross-border drug abuse trends and anti-drug initiatives, occupational safety and health risks in recruit training, investment scams, as well as financial crimes with international elements and the related crime prevention education.
