专业概况

在这里学什么？

Criminal justice examines the causes and patterns of criminal behavior, the institutions and individuals that work within the criminal justice system, and the role law plays in prevention and responses to crime.

Strengths of the program

Graduates from our program receive a bachelor of arts in criminal justice and criminology. This differentiates WSU’s program from other programs where criminal justice may be an emphasis area under another degree field rather than its own stand-alone degree. Our criminal justice program is a policy-based curriculum drawing from the social sciences, specifically from the areas of sociology, psychology, and political science. It is not a vocational/technical program, unlike programs found at some other schools. Our program is the oldest existing criminal justice program in the nation, established back in 1943 as the Department of Police Science.

The department emphasizes learning beyond the classroom by encouraging students to participate in study abroad programs and internships. Our students have traveled to London to visit various criminal justice system components (i.e. Parliament, Scotland Yard) and our interns have worked with various local, state, and federal agencies ranging from the WSU Police Department to the State Legislature in Olympia.
