From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Reid Professor of Criminal Law, Criminology and Penology is a professorship held at Trinity College Dublin.

It is named after Richard Tuohill Reid (1823-83) an Irish lawyer and academic who was Perry professor in jurisprudence at Elphinstone College, a constituent college of the University of Bombay (now the University of Mumbai). Reid bequeathed £25,000 in trust to Irish education.[1]

The chair was established initially in 1888 as Reid Professor of Penal Legislation, Constitutional and Criminal Law, and the Law of Evidence. This was amended to its current name by the High Court on 3 March 1975.

While nominally a chair, appointments are made on the lecturer scale. The current holder is designated an adjunct assistant professor.[2]
