There exists a clear hierarchy in the administration. The Criminal Justice program is well supported by the University Administration. The Criminal Justice program is now under the Department of Applied Science giving the program a stronger identity, as opposed to having been under two Departments in the past. The curriculum appears to be very well balanced. The student advising load is lighter now for better interaction.
Students feel they are given good awareness of career opportunities.
Faculty Qualifications There are six full time faculty members with appropriate degrees to more than meet the minimum standards. There is a strong group of adjunct faculty members. The Department recognizes the need to improve faculty diversity based on student population. Students express strength of program is the interaction with faculty members, with one exception. Students want more faculty members to improve the availability of interactions and to offer more variation in classes.
