Criminal Justice

Bachelor of Criminal Justice

The undergraduate criminal justice program provides a multidisciplinary study of the structure, administration, and dynamics of the criminal justice system. The system, a network of agencies at the local, state, and federal levels, is composed of law enforcement, the courts, corrections, and the private/corporate criminal justice sector. Courses examine components of the criminal justice system and provoke critical thinking on the competing ideologies of crime and correction.
