Dr. Nicolette Bardele is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Criminology at the University of South Florida. She earned her BA in Sociology and Statistics from the University of Notre Dame and her MA and PhD in Sociology from Harvard University. Prior to joining USF, she was a Postdoctoral Scholar at Penn State University’s Criminal Justice Research Center. Dr. Bardele’s work broadly explores the conditions and administration of criminal justice supervision and confinement. Her recent research has focused on how spatial and temporal contexts shape the experience of probation/parole in communities spanning the rural-urban continuum. She is also involved in multiple large-scale, multidisciplinary, and mixed-methods projects on community supervision, post-prison reentry, and substance use recovery.
