In TSU’s criminal justice program a student can tailor
their degree with different concentration areas. They must elect
one 15 hour concentration, but most do two or three. The four
concentration areas are: law enforcement, forensic and correctional
psychology, agency administration, and psychology. Most of the
criminal justice and psychology students complete a minor if not
a double major.
This is accomplished by knowing in advance what the student wants
as a career and knowing the job market. The department is also
good at having the student specialize in a growing area of the
market they wish to be in. We always encourage students to be
solid generalists, so when they graduate they can more easily
find their niche.
