As criminal activities increasingly cross borders, their underlying factors can't be analyzed only within local contexts. A global perspective on justice systems and societal factors has become essential for combating crime and inequality worldwide.
The University at Buffalo's MA in Criminal Justice and Human Security equips students with specialized knowledge about international political, cultural, and economic factors that influence criminal behavior and its prevention. This program provides understanding of how cultural, ethnic, religious and ideological differences frequently underlie criminal behavior, violent acts, and terrorism.
Key curriculum components include: national and international criminal law comparisons, cross-border crime, digital offenses, and online terrorism - all instructed by seasoned professionals.
