The Department of Criminal Justice, Psychology & Social Sciences offers a variety of degrees, each with its own special merits and opportunities. All programs are designed to meet curriculum and career goals, to foster creative and critical thinking skills, and to promote positive human relations so necessary in today's complex global society. 

The curriculum has been designed to acquaint students who are majoring outside the social sciences with the political, economic, and cultural complexities of the world of today and yesterday; to provide a solid foundation in the social sciences for students interested in graduate and professional schools; and to prepare students for active roles of responsible citizenship. Students will be prepared to assume careers in governmental agencies, private industry, and independent professional practice.
