The Criminology BA program offers a unique perspective on global society, providing deep understanding of human diversity and our tendencies toward wrongdoing, disputes, assigning blame, and administering justice. This modern curriculum integrates essential social science and legal concepts - including criminal behavior, social norms, ethics, disputes, condemnation, and fairness - with philosophy, historical context, cultural analysis, and language studies. The outcome is an unusually comprehensive and nuanced worldview.
This research-focused, multidisciplinary degree imparts global knowledge while developing analytical abilities and evaluative reasoning. The course offers excellent academic preparation for careers in culturally complex fields like law enforcement, corrections, social services, media, government, academic research, healthcare, legal organizations, advocacy groups, nonprofit work, and entertainment media.
