This degree provides the education and skills necessary to enter into or seek promotion within the criminal justice system. Employment opportunities exist in the areas of law enforcement, corrections, probation, legal offices, court personnel, private security, Human Services Assistant, etc. These fields are highly selective and require intensive background checks; thus, employment in these areas is not guaranteed by earning this degree.

At the same time, students learn the skills needed for effective interpersonal communication, administrative decision-making and personnel management. Students will be able to understand the structure, organization, function, policies and practices of the criminal justice system.
