The mission of the Department of Criminal Justice is to prepare students to become leaders, outstanding practitioners, scholars, and advocates for social justice in a diverse and global society. Students are required to take courses providing a comprehensive overview of the Criminal Justice system and select an emphasis area in Law Enforcement, Courts/Law, Corrections/Counseling, or Research based on their career or graduate school interests. A Homeland Security Management track has been developed and will be added to the curriculum pending approval. The Department has approximately 450 undergraduate and graduate students. There are eight full-time tenure track positions the Department. The Department of Criminal Justice has a modern computer lab and several active student organizations. Additionally, we have several exciting venues: Juvenile Justice Institute, Center for Domestic and International Criminal Justice Research and Policy, Homeland Security Institute; and coming soon is a Center for Domestic and International Criminal Justice Research and Policy.
