A bachelor of criminal justice is worth it if you would like to understand the inner workings of the criminal justice system. Police officers and other law enforcement officers may find value in connecting with peers, who are among both the faculty and student body, to get an informed perspective and share real-world experiences about crime scene investigation, forensic investigation, and criminal offenses. A criminal justice degree also helps to enrich the communication and critical thinking skills that are vital to those engaged in the criminal justice profession and digital forensics, as well as the work of professionals such as probation officers.
The criminal justice bachelor’s degree offers an introduction to U.S. criminal law, crime prevention practices, law enforcement objectives, forensic science, and the legal and corrections systems. Throughout their studies, students are encouraged to think like a police officer: courses advance their knowledge of criminals, while simultaneously dissecting scholarly theories and real-world solutions for discouraging individuals from committing crimes.
Ultimately, whether or not you should pursue your degree in criminal justice depends on your own academic goals and your unique subject matter interests. For some students, a criminal justice bachelor’s degree is a natural fit, while others may be better suited to different educational programs.
This degree is a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice with a concentration in Digital Forensics. Students will explore the criminal justice field through the lens of forensic investigators in order to better understand how technology is used to commit, prevent, and solve crimes.
This online criminal justice degree program consists of 120 credits, and students may be eligible to transfer up to 90 credits toward AMU’s BS or BA degrees, based on transfer policies outlined on our University website.
