Zoe Rodgers BA, MSc, AFHEA

Associate Lecturer


Summary

I am an Associate Lecturer within the Department of Law and Criminology who has taught at various levels across the undergraduate and postgraduate provision: my teaching and research specialisms concern policing, the use of behaviour orders and notices, social research methods, anti-social behaviour, violence against women and girls, and serious and organised crime. I am also an Academic Advisor, postgraduate dissertation supervisor and mentor for several doctoral students across the university.

About

I am an alum of Sheffield Hallam University, completing my undergraduate degree in BA Criminology in 2016-2019, following which I pursued an MSc in Criminology and Criminal Justice Practice during 2019-2020. I began teaching on the undergraduate and postgraduate provision in 2020, supporting the delivery of the level 7 Social Research Methods module, level 5 Deconstructing Research and Real World Cutting Edge Research Methods modules and the level 4 Criminal Justice module. I then secured funding for my doctoral research in 2021, for which I also secured additional funding from the annual FindAPhD international scholarship competition, which only one individual wins every year.
 
During my time at Sheffield Hallam, I have researched various topics, including student engagement with extra-curricular activities, student experiences and outcomes following the completion of our probation courses offered within the department and the use of green spaces in the local area. Furthermore, I have been directly involved in researching recipients', practitioners' and victims' experiences of the Community Protection Notice in addressing anti-social behaviour. I have been involved in research projects supporting student continuation through creating a Social Study Space and involvement in college outreach to explore the barriers college students face when considering a career in the probation service. On an international scale, I have contributed to research examining the causes and drivers of serious and organised crime in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
The previous undertaken while completing my doctoral research on the policing practices associated with civil preventive orders and notices for sub-criminal (anti-social behaviour) and criminal behaviour (violence against women and girls). This project supports the work of several Home Office working groups. The research utilises a mixed methods approach to examine frontline policing practice, drawing on ethnographic methods.
 
I am currently involved in the following projects:
• Understanding the policing practices associated with civil preventive orders and notices
• Barriers to a career in the probation service
• Learning and Student Experience Enhancement
• An evaluation of the Harm Reduction Enforcement Pathway (independent research)
 
I am a reviewer for Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice. I am a member of the BSC and ESC Policing Working Groups. I am also a member of the N8PRP New Researchers in Policing Network, Research Ethics Association and Socio-Legal Studies Association. I have also been asked recently to sit on a scrutiny panel concerning my expertise around police use of behaviour orders and notices and to undertake an evaluation of the Harm Reduction Enforcement Pathway.
