Criminology is the study of the origins, extent, causes, and effects of crime on societies. You'll learn the history and practice of crime control, as well as the research skills to draw larger conclusions about the nature and effects of crime.
Your Criminology major will prepare you for careers as federal law enforcement agents and analysts, police officers, corrections officers, probation and parole officials, victim services counselors, and social justice activists. It also provides a strong foundation for graduate study in criminology, criminal justice, and law.
In addition to preparing you for advanced studies at the graduate level or in law school, our program prepares you for jobs in law enforcement, corrections, the court system, juvenile justice, and related business. Some examples include:
- Police officer
- U.S. Marshal
- Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) agent
- Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) agent
- Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agent
- Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) agent
- Probation/parole officer
