Bachelor of Criminal Justice
In order to earn the bachelor of criminal justice degree, students must complete a minimum of 180 quarter credits with a cumulative and a major/program grade point average of 2.00, including the following: I. Core Curriculum Requirements
NOTE:
- A course used to satisfy the core senior synthesis may not also apply to the major requirements.
- Interdisciplinary core courses taken through the criminal justice program will fulfill both the interdisciplinary core requirement and major requirement (either as a specialization requirement or criminal justice elective depending on the course taken and degree/specialization option).
- Criminal justice majors are required to take CRJS 487 Senior Synthesis to fulfill the core senior synthesis requirement with the exception of students obtaining a double major or double degree in which case the senior synthesis from the second major/degree will fulfill the core senior synthesis requirement.
II. College of Arts and Sciences Requirements
- Modern Language 115, 125, 135, or equivalent (15)
NOTE:
All students with a major in the College of Arts and Sciences must demonstrate competency through the level of 135 in a language other than English. This competency is ordinarily achieved by successful completion of the three-course sequence: 115, 125, and 135. Because these courses are a college requirement, no course in the sequence may be taken on a pass/fail, correspondence, or audit basis. Placement into other than the beginning course of the sequence is achieved by acceptable performance on the Modern Language Competency Examination. See the Modern Languages Department for details on the examinations. Courses used to satisfy the College of Arts and Sciences modern language requirement may not be used to fulfill criminal justice major requirements. Choose one of the following two courses:
