Michael Birzer is a professor of criminal justice at Wichita State University. He was director of the School of Criminal Justice for 10 years, while specializing in police operations, police organization, evidence-based police practices, and qualitative research design. He regularly consults police agencies on a wide variety of operational and organizational issues. Recently, he was the recipient of the Wichita State University President's Venture award for his proposal to bring the Wichita/Sedgwick County Law Enforcement Training Center to campus. The new state-of-the-art training center, now located on campus, provides students with many applied learning opportunities. Prior to Birzer's entry into academia, he served in policing for over 18 years, retiring at the rank of lieutenant. He earned his doctorate from Oklahoma State University, where his research focused on police training and education. Birzer believes while it is important for students to have an in-depth understanding of police research and theory, it is equally important for them to know how research and theory inform fundamental police practice.

His first involvement with victims issues came in 1981 when the State Bar of Texas appointed a committee on victims issues. He was fortunate to be appointed to that committee.

Years later, as a faculty member at Washburn University, he attended a conference in Kansas City on victims services. It was at this conference that the American Society of Victimology was founded and he joined as a life member.

邁克爾·比爾澤是威奇塔州立大學的刑事司法教授。他曾擔任刑事司法學院的院長十年，專注於警察運作、警察組織、基於證據的警察實務以及質性研究設計。他定期為警察機構提供各種運作和組織問題的諮詢。最近，他因提出將威奇塔/塞奇威克縣執法訓練中心引入校園的提案而獲得威奇塔州立大學校長的創新獎。這個位於校園內的新型先進訓練中心為學生提供了許多應用學習的機會。在比爾澤進入學術界之前，他在警察工作中服務了超過18年，並以中尉的軍階退休。他在俄克拉荷馬州立大學獲得博士學位，研究重點是警察訓練和教育。比爾澤認為，雖然學生深入了解警察研究和理論是重要的，但同樣重要的是他們要知道研究和理論如何影響基本的警察實務。
