The program is designed for anybody with an interest in criminology or criminal justice. We have students who will go on to law school, law enforcement, corrections or forensics. This program prepares you to go into a variety of areas of criminal justice. Offering students a criminal justice program that also is a sociology degree is another advantage of the program, Gotcher explained. It exposes students to the theoretical perspective to help develop problem-solving skills.
Students learn to hypothesize why a problem exists.
