Why study Criminal Justice?
If you have an interest in crime and justice in all its contexts then the Criminal Justice major is for you! You will learn about persons who commit criminal acts and act violently as well as why they do so. You will discover how criminal behaviour might be controlled and better managed. You will find out what police services and other investigative agencies can and cannot do to control or prevent criminal behaviour. You will analyse how courts respond to criminal behaviour and how they make police services and investigative agencies accountable for their activities. You will find out what happens inside prisons.
This major will give you a wide knowledge about crime and justice and help you develop skills in research, analysis and communication.
