It focuses generally on, among other issues, the history of the criminal justice system; theories of crime and deviance; the origin and development of criminal law; the functions and operations of criminal justice agencies in a diverse society; the violations of criminal law and society\u2019s responses to the violations of criminal law; the nature, meaning, and purposes of criminal punishment; and the nature and impact of criminal justice policy.<\/p>\n<p>The Criminal Justice major at Trinity emphasizes three foundational areas: law enforcement, corrections, and juvenile justice. The Criminal Justice major prepares students for graduate school and a wide range of career opportunities in security and law enforcement, probation and parole, the court system, and corrections. Given the applied nature of criminal justice, experiential learning is an important part of the major. As such, all majors are required to complete an internship with a public or private organization that is involved in some aspect of criminal justice. The Criminal Justice major and minor are offered to students in the College of Arts and Sciences, and the major is offered in the School of Professional Studies.<\/p>\n<span id=\"Major_Requirements\"><h2>Major Requirements<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><strong>Required Courses (45 credits)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>ALL of the following courses (33 credits):<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >SOCY 100<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 100<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 101<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 200<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 205<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 206<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 208<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 303<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 307<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 410<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 499<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Two research methods courses (6 credits):<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >MATH 110<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >SOCY 311<\/span><\/p>\n<p>One elective course (3 credits):<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 309<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COM 312<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 351<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 366<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 381<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 388<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 444<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >BIOL 220<\/span><\/p>\n<p>One internship (3 credits):<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 492<\/span><\/p>\n<span id=\"Minor_Requirements\"><h2>Minor Requirements<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><strong>Required Courses (21 credits)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px\"><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 100<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 101<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 200<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 206<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 208<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 303<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 307<\/span><\/p>\n<span id=\"Program_Policies\"><h2>Program Policies<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><strong>Advanced Placement:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Credits earned through AP examinations do not fulfill requirements of the Criminal Justice major.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CLEP Policy:<br \/>\n<\/strong>Credits earned through CLEP examinations do not fulfill requirements of the Criminal Justice major.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Grades in Major Courses:<\/strong><br \/>\nStudents are required to earn a grade of \"C\" or better in all courses counted to fulfill requirements for the major.

Also, students who major in Human Relations and minor in Criminal Justice must fulfill their Sociology requirements separately from the minor requirements for Criminal Justice. If, however, someone is only majoring in Human Relations, she may take Criminal Justice courses to meet the Sociology requirements for Human Relations.<\/p>\n<span id=\"Course_Descriptions\"><h2>Course Descriptions<\/h2><\/span>\n<p><span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >BIOL 220<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 100<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 101<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 200<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 205<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 206<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 208<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 303<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 306<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 307<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 309<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 341<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 344<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 351<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 366<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 377<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 381<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 388<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 410<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 444<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 471<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 492<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 497<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 498<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >CJUS 499<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >COM 312<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >MATH 110<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >SOCY 100<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"\" title=\"NO MATCHING EVENT ID FOUND IN DATABASE\" >SOCY 311<\/span><br \/>\n<script>\nfunction toggleCourse(control) {\n\tif ($(control).hasClass('dyn_course_off')) {\n    \t$(control).removeClass('dyn_course_off').addClass('dyn_course_on');\n\t\tif ($(control).next().is('span')) {\n\t\t\t$(control).next().slideDown('slow');\n\t\t} else {\n\t\t\t$(control).parent().next().slideDown('slow');\n\t\t}\n    } else {\n\t\t$(control).removeClass('dyn_course_on').addClass('dyn_course_off');\n\t\tif ($(control).next().is('span')) {\n\t\t\t$(control).next().slideUp();\n\t\t} else {\n\t\t\t$(control).parent().next().slideUp();\n\t\t}\n\t}\n}\n<\/script>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Criminal Justice (B.A.) This undergraduate program is offered by the College of Arts and Sciences.
