Program Overview

There can be no criminal justice without a commitment to the principles and practices of social justice. Today’s communities require a different approach to law enforcement. The Mount’s program provides a sociological perspective informed by principles of restorative justice and Catholic social teaching. The result is a greater level of professionalism and a better understanding of how to build trust through collaboration.

As a criminal justice major, you’ll study the various aspects of the American justice system, including the police, the courts and the corrections system. Through criminology, you’ll study the making and breaking of laws, and the social reaction that follows. You’ll also discuss violent crime, property crime and “victimless crime,” as well as the social control of crime. In criminal law, you’ll cover legal principles through case studies, looking at the basic elements of crime, crimes against people, property and society in general, and the privileges and defenses of the accused. Our faculty includes working professionals who work closely with students and cover a variety of specializations, ranging from cyber to street crime, as well as issues surrounding guns, drugs and immigration.

A criminal justice degree will open opportunities to various careers such as an intelligence analyst for the FBI working to stop terrorism, a U.S. Marshall apprehending fugitives across the country, or a police detective helping keep criminals off the streets of your town.
