The B.S. in Criminal Justice program is designed to help you gain the skills and knowledge to prepare for a career in law enforcement, the justice system, corrections, homeland security, and social services.

The program blends contemporary theory on the nature, extent, and cause of crime with the study of national and international criminal justice practices. Learning is supported through coursework and a final capstone project. Plus, the program uses the latest interactive media, including lifelike, computer-generated scenarios from crime scenes.

You will apply criminal justice theories to current issues as you gain perspective in three vitally important areas:

-Civic engagement, social responsibility, and global awareness
-Collection and analysis of data across organizations
-Teamwork and communication

Our curriculum is based on the recommendations of the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences. The program can help prepare you to become a more effective social change agent in criminal justice organizations at the local, state, federal, or international levels.

As crime continues to plague large cities and small communities throughout the world, the need for criminal investigators continues to grow.

In this concentration, you will study criminal theories and behavior, and you will discover the proper way to conduct a criminal investigation. Areas of study include

- Assessing a crime scene
- Handling witnesses, suspects, and informants
- Administering surveillance techniques

The world of drugs, gangs, and organized crime will be explored, along with the impact of these group activities on crime and policing.

Consider this concentration if you are interested in exploring the world of gangs and organized crime units and task forces. Or consider it if you may be interested in working as a crime scene investigator, criminologist, researcher, or detective.
As your knowledge grows, your influence multiplies. Walden University.
