Missions & Vision Statement of the Criminal Justice Program
Missions Statement
The Criminal Justice Program prepares students for entry-level positions at local, state, and federal levels and successful completion of graduate studies or law school. The program accomplishes these goals through a course of study that emphasizes:
- Mastery of the theoretical and skill foundations necessary for entry-level professional employment in the criminal justice field;
- Familiarity with the codes of professional ethics and the ability to apply these principles to ethical problems encountered by the criminal justice professional; and
- A broad-based program of general education that prepares students for successful completion of graduate studies or law school.
Vision Statement
The Criminal Justice Program seeks to develop students who will have a positive impact on their communities by returning as correctional officers, police officers, probation officers, attorneys and judges who demonstrate a strong commitment to social justice with a special concern for the poor and disenfranchised.
