Few programs offer the range of criminal justice offerings that California University's does. All students are grounded in the general education program and the social sciences. There is an emphasis on strong computer skills.
Criminal justice is inherently an interdisciplinary field with many facets.
Students are encouraged to pursue minors in both the liberal arts and in technology that enhance career opportunities. For example, a criminal justice major with a minor in Spanish will be well in demand, as well as those with minors in the hard sciences of biology, physics and chemistry. A minor in computer science will be useful for positions in white-color crime detection.
