School of Criminal Justice
Masters Program
Master of Science in Criminal Justice
This is a 36-semester-hour graduate program designed to prepare graduate students to become highly capable criminal justice leaders, planners, activists and academicians who will continuously improve the criminal justice system and profession. The program is also designed to prepare those students who are planning to pursue doctoral degrees. Courses are designed to meet the needs of scholars, managers and administrators in law enforcement, adult corrections, juvenile justice, and private security.
The Master of Criminal Justice degree program includes 18 hours of required courses, 15-18 hours of guided electives, and an option to choose between a three-hour project and a six-hour thesis requirement. In addition, those without work experience in criminal justice or private security are strongly encouraged to take a three-hour graduate internship course (CJ 640).
