Center for Policy and Research

The Center for Policy and Research at Seton Hall University School of Law is directed by Professor Mark Denbeaux and is located in Newark, New Jersey in the United States. Founded in 2005, students, serving as Fellows at the Center, conduct the bulk of the Center’s research and policy analysis, as well as publish reports – in conjunction with Senior Fellows at the Center (working attorneys) as well Seton Hall faculty – on subjects of national importance. Major studies undertaken by the Fellows include research projects on: United States detention practices and policies (most notably in Guantánamo Bay); interrogation and intelligence gathering; proficiency tests of forensic witnesses; and the demographic impact of New Jersey’s Drug-Free Zones.
