Description of Program

An interdisciplinary degree, the B.A. in Criminal Justice Studies offers a variety of courses which give the student a unique perspective on the criminal justice system and prepares them for leadership roles in this career area. In addition to applied and experiential classes which give practical and “hands-on” knowledge, selected humanities courses in sociology, psychology, anthropology, and philosophy provide interpretations of issues involving crime and society that can only be found in a truly liberal arts education.
