  • A system of criminal justice must meet the needs of each citizen as well as the needs of complex social, economic, and governmental institutions. The Bachelor of Arts degree program in criminal justice was developed with these needs in mind. Our curriculum focuses on the history and functions of the criminal justice system, research design, policy implementation, theoretical and environmental causes of crime, and practical skills for those interested in a career in criminal justice and related fields.

In addition, the program is designed to provide students with an appropriate academic background for continuing their graduate studies in criminal justice, criminology, or other areas such as law.

The criminal justice major is an interdisciplinary program with enough flexibility to permit students to pursue their own interests. For example, students wishing to emphasize law enforcement may select appropriate courses within the major. Students directed toward probation, parole or corrections work are advised to select courses accordingly.

Crime Analysis is a rapidly growing field offering exciting employment opportunities. Increasingly, criminal justice agencies-- at the local and state level-- are hiring people with advanced analytic and technological capabilities. The drive to engage in more proactive, evidence-based policing founded upon sound analysis is a national trend that is unlikely to slow. Courses are organized into several tracks allowing students to research-based instruction, students are offered a range of concentration areas, including cyber security, geographic information systems, and homeland security.
