Introduction
The Criminal Justice Program provides a program of study to help students understand domestic and international politics and law enforcement theory and practice, preparing students for informed and active participation in the political arena and in criminal justice careers. To achieve this outcome, you’ll:
- gain a comprehensive understanding of criminal justice, policing, and legal systems;
- elevate your communication, decision-making, analytical, and problem-solving skills;
- discover how to collaborate with different populations and communities;
- start to see research and data analysis as tools for developing solutions to ongoing problems, including for determining the causes of crime and devising ways to protect your surrounding community;
- explore the relationship between human behavior and outside factors to determine why certain individuals engage in criminal behavior;
- apply criminal justice theories to real-world problems; and
- become familiar with current criminal justice trends, including the impact of advocacy and social justice.
