Criminal Justice Professional Degree Program
The Professional Degree Program in Criminal Justice is designed to educate students in the knowledge and values needed for work in the criminal system, whether as police officers, correctional officers, or employees of the courts. We hope to promote a culture of enlightened compassion for both victims and offenders, influenced by Quincy University's Franciscan and Catholic social justice and liberal arts traditions.
Students enrolled in this program will be expected to follow a degree plan that incorporates approved 300- and 400- level courses from the following academic programs:
- Criminal Justice (CRJ)
- Social Work (SWK)
- Human Services (HMS)
- Psychology (PSY)
Courses from other programs may be used in degree plans providing pre-approval is provided by the Director of Adult Studies. Forty-eight credit hours of approved coursework in the aforementioned programs are required, in addition to 12 hours of electives and University required courses.
