The Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration is designed to permit the pursuit of specific career goals while integrating the general study of criminal justice and law with other relevant disciplines. A degree in criminal justice administration promotes and enhances communication and critical thinking skills, and prepares students for entry-level employment in law enforcement, corrections, and loss prevention, for promotion and leadership roles, and for graduate study and law school. The degree requires completion of an internship at approved locations, and may be a better choice for those without career experience in the field. Students who have completed a state police academy or the corrections basic training academy should refer to the Partners in Law Enforcement program (PILE), or Partners in Corrections program for transfer credit possibility. A Crime Scene Investigation certificate is also available to students completing a Criminal Justice degree.
