Robin Shepard Engel is an American criminologist. She was formerly a tenured professor in the College of Education Criminal Justice and Human Services at the University of Cincinnati (UC). She now serves as an adjunct.
She also previously served as UC's Vice President for Safety & Reform and the director of the IACP/UC Center for Police Research and Policy, a collaboration between UC and the International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP). She is also the former director of UC's Institute of Crime Science.[1] She became UC's first Vice President for Safety & Reform in 2015, when the university created the position in response to the shooting of Samuel DuBose by a UC police officer.[2] UC President Santa Ono said that Engel's "hands-on" approach that she has used to research policing, sometimes involving walking with police officers on their beats, would help her improve the campus's police department.[3]
