About the course

The criminal justice program is structured to make students think critically about the causes and consequences of crime and deviance, research and discuss the evolving issues in the field of criminal justice, and evaluate the potential of empirical research to help guide policy development. Students are introduced to both established and contemporary theory, to research skills, and to the skill sets that are required to work in the field. We value the importance to properly prepare students to join the ranks of professionals working for the criminal justice system or in the social services. With a degree in criminal justice it allows the student to be part of a learning environment that allows the individual hone and perfect invaluable skills required in all criminal justice fields. Course topics and course work exposes the different aspects of the criminal justice system, be it police, courts, or corrections. We also help to prepare those who plan to obtain advanced degrees to gain admission to prominent social science and professional graduate and legal programs.
