Minor in Criminal Justice

About the Minor

Students from any major who are interested in the law, the justice process, and how crime and crime policy relate to education, health, housing, and climate change might consider a minor in criminal justice. Such students could enhance their educational experience and their career possibilities by complementing their major with a criminal justice minor, particularly if they take one or more of our community-based learning and analytical courses, such as Crime Mapping or Justice in Our Community.

The minor consists of four required courses and four criminal justice electives chosen from two categories, for a total of 24.0 credits.

All prospective students should meet with an advisor from the College as soon as possible.
