One of the program s strengths, according to Dr. Wiinamaki, is its interdisciplinary nature. Dual or combination majors, such as communications and criminal justice, are available to students. Also, any program of emphasis may include a concentration in criminal justice for 18 credits. Graduates in criminal justice can choose careers in law enforcement, probation and parole, corrections, juvenile justice, or victim services. Federal, state, and local government agencies offer career opportunities for graduates.
Some graduates pursue careers in corrections counseling or drug and alcohol abuse intervention.
