Martina Feilzer, Professor in Criminology & Criminal Justice, recently delivered a highly praised two-week course at China University of Political Science and Law (CUPL) in Beijing, titled Public Attitudes to the Use of AI Technologies in Criminal Justice. The programme, which examined public perceptions and ethical concerns surrounding the use of artificial intelligence in criminal justice systems, attracted strong interest from students and staff alike.

The course was made possible through the long-standing partnership between ����Ӱҵ and CUPL, established and facilitated by the Confucius Institute. This collaboration laid the groundwork for the teaching exchange and continues to support cross-cultural academic dialogue.

Dr Lina Davitt, Confucius Institute Director, said, “Martina’s course was incredibly well received, with praise for its engaging content, contemporary relevance, and thought-provoking delivery. Participants particularly valued the opportunity to explore global perspectives on the intersection of technology and justice.

“Beyond the classroom, Martina delivered a guest lecture on Youth Justice Developments in Wales to CUPL academics and students. The lecture offered comparative insights into juvenile justice systems and sparked lively discussion on youth engagement and legal reform.

“The visit truly highlighted ����Ӱҵ’s strengths in criminology and justice studies, and also reinforced the value of international collaboration in tackling shared global challenges.”
