Peter Cordella is a Professor and Department Chair in the Criminal Justice Department at Anselm College. He holds a B.A. in Sociology from Boston College (1976), an M.A. in Sociology from Boston College (1978), and a Ph.D. in Sociology from Boston University (1985).
His research focuses on criminology, including theories of crime, comparative criminal justice systems, violence studies, and white-collar crime. Recent work emphasizes crime in the life course, public health approaches to violence, and alternative dispute resolution through restorative justice. His mediation and arbitration experience informs his research.
Collaborating with students, he has led projects on gun violence (homicide/suicide), mediation as an alternative to prosecution, and near-lethal violence analysis combining criminology’s life course model with public health risk assessment. He co-directs the annual New England Arson Seminar on campus.
No scientific awards are explicitly mentioned in the text. Grants and funding details are not provided, though his involvement with student research and the Arson Seminar suggests active engagement in academic initiatives.
