The major in criminal justice combines a liberal arts education with a study of the causes of crime, the criminal justice system, and the roles of policing, courts, laws, and corrections as they contribute to social order. The program is designed as both a four-year major and as an affiliated program for students transferring from community colleges. It prepares students for a broad range of career opportunities including work in law enforcement and security, probation and parole, the court system, corrections, and other human services professions.
