Criminal Justice

Minor

A Minor in Criminal Justice compliments many academic disciplines that are interested in the study of human beings, their behavior and the relationship between humans and societal institutions that serve their needs and/or control their behavior and actions. The minor allows an in-depth examination of the daily functioning of the organizational components of the criminal justice system--law and courts, the police and corrections--as well as a cursory examination of criminal behavior. Students will learn to critically reflect on the proper role of the criminal justice system in a democratic society that values human rights and civil rights. The minor requires 18 credit hours, which includes CJ 101, 6 hours to be selected from CJ 201, CJ 202 CJ 204 and/or CJ 205; 3 hours to be selected from any CJ elective; 6 hours to be selected from any CJ elective at the 300 or 400 levels.
