Bacharelado em Ciências Sociais em Justiça Criminal

Centenary University is committed to a quality liberal arts career-oriented education to engage students in learning and prepare them for satisfying careers, successful lives, career advancement, community service, and lifelong intellectual pursuits. Responding to the needs of the criminal justice community and providing you with quality education, and preparing you for a successful career in the criminal justice system, the University established this innovative, practitioner-based program.

The program is interdisciplinary and explores the causes and effects of crime and the analytical, investigatory and technology-based responses to it. A theoretical understanding of the causes and results of crime is covered. The criminal justice classroom experience combines an understanding of theory with a hands-on practical application of current criminal justice best practices.

The Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice prepares students for employment in any of the three primary components of the criminal justice system:

Law Enforcement

Courts

Corrections

Additionally, students will be well prepared for employment in related criminal justice fields such as Victims Services, Crime Scene Processing, Security Services and Investigations, Crime Analysis, Probation, Parole, Police Misconduct, Homeland Security, Paralegal and Legal Assistant Studies, and a wide variety of careers in and around government services. The program also provides the rigorous preparation necessary for students who wish to continue their education at the graduate level, particularly in the University’s Master of Arts in Leadership and Public Administration Program.
