Abstract

The aim of this study is to derive the design factors of CPTED through the analysis of crime data on university campuses. Through prior research, campus crime analysis was reflected based on the Routine activity theory, and campus crime data was analyzed from four perspectives: criminal with motivated offender, suitable target, absence of guardians, and matching place and the time of crime.
 First, it is the result of analyzing criminals with motivated offender. There were many crimes by insiders, especially college students, who are members of the school, and sexual assault and violence were committed by outsiders, not by school members. And It has been showed that some violent offenders are under the influence of alcohol.
 Second, in the results of analysis about suitable target, The proportion of victims of insider, such as students and faculty members, accounted for the majority with 97.7% of theft, 97.4% of sexual assault, and 80.8% of violence. In the analysis by gender, men accounted for 51.9% and women 48.1% of theft damage, while women accounted for 97.4% of sexual assault, but men accounted for 76.9% of violence. As a result of the analysis, most of the items damaged by theft were laptops, wallets, and cash that could be easily accessed and moved.
 Third, it is the result of the analysis of the absence of guardians. The state of not protecting the victim or the damaged item was analyzed. The theft was damaged while 93.2 percent were away, and in the case of sexual violence, 76.3 percent had no one to ask for help. However, violence occurred even in situations where 73.1% were around when it occurred. As a result of spatial analysis, theft and sexual assault were common in places such as closed lecture rooms and club rooms without being seen from the outside, and violence was mostly committed in open spaces outside. In terms of CCTV installation, theft occurred more in places where CCTVs were installed than in places where CCTVs were not installed.
 Fourth, in the result of analyzing the place and the time of the crime. As classifying by campus places, crimes occurred in the order of class room(40.1%), living space(15.2%), outdoor space(12.2%), and library(8.1%). As for the total crime time, crimes occurred the most during the afternoon from 12:00 to 6:00 pm, and violence occurred during the night time, which is the time after class.
 Through campus crime data analysis, comprehensive campus security plans are needed to take into account the user needs for security and spatiotemporal risk characteristics, and crime prevention measures should be established through CPTED's strategies.
 It is important to establish crime prevention measures through CPTED strategies and to design them so that they do not go against autonomy, creative studies, and a pleasant natural environment.
