The main goal of this paper is to analyze the basic determinants of police sciences and explore the possibility of their equal treatment with other sciences, based on the analysis of previous research and results in terms of establishing and developing police sciences as well as research and educational police practices. In addition, this paper should contribute to the integration of the knowledge developed so far in our country into the corpus of police sciences and their more efficient application in police education and everyday police work. The establishment of police sciences is imposed as a necessary precondition, as a special scientific field in the existing classification of scientific fields.
KEY WORDS: Police, science, education, classification of sciences
