Criminal Justice Department
The criminal justice major is designed to provide
theoretical and practical knowledge for students interested in
professional careers in traditional law enforcement fields such as
corrections, courts, police, and probation; in administrative and
management positions in criminal justice and private security; and
in law and paralegal occupations. Moreover, the major's curriculum
is intended to facilitate entry into graduate programs in criminal
justice, sociology, and law, while also retaining a humanistic
understanding of the study of crime. The criminal justice major at
Saint Joseph's is distinguished by its emphasis upon creative
participation, with student-faculty interaction being maximized
through field placements and independent research project.
