专业概况

在这里学什么？

In our increasingly complex world, criminals and criminal organizations are more sophisticated than ever. Along with so-called traditional activities - such as drug trafficking, street crime and extortion - they also employ computers and the Internet to threaten our security.

As criminal activity becomes more complex and global in scope, law enforcement agencies seek a new generation of highly trained and educated criminal justice professionals. Job opportunities for police and detectives are expected to rise by 10 percent over the next decade; for criminal investigators, job growth will be as high as 17 percent.

You can prepare for these highly sought-after opportunities through the Bachelor of Science Degree Program in Criminal Justice at St. John's. Offered by the College of Professional Studies, this 126-credit program prepares students for career opportunities in the criminal justice field, including the public sector and all levels of government. Additionally, private sector organizations increasingly seek to hire professionals in the field.

The program draws on the guidance and insight provided by the University's Criminal Justice Advisory Council, composed of distinguished leaders in police service, law, corrections and public safety administration.

A unique feature of the program is the option to specialize in Forensic Psychology. Minor areas of study are also available, including:

• Business
• Computer Science
• Correctional Counseling
• Court Administration
• Criminalistics
