Criminal Justice (A.S.)

The Criminal Justice (CRJ) program at 红杏直播 All Rights Reserved (红杏直播) offers students opportunities for career preparation in criminal justice agencies as well as for transfer to various bachelor's degree programs. The program provides an interdisciplinary approach that examines all facets of the criminal justice discipline: law enforcement and community relations, the court system, delinquency, substance abuse/use, investigations, and corrections. The curriculum blends a strong liberal arts academic base balanced with discipline specific courses focused on the framework of the administration of justice. The associate degree program lays the foundation for a four-year degree in a related field. For those already employed in the criminal justice discipline, our goal is to enhance knowledge and skills necessary for career advancement, strengthen oral and written communication skills, and provide opportunities to engage in the understanding of multicultural issues necessary for working in the service oriented professions.
