Public Administration (with criminal justice concentration)

Preparing future leaders in law enforcement and criminal justice agencies is the focus of our master’s degree in public administration program with a concentration in criminal justice. This program is offered jointly through the political science and criminal justice and criminology departments and is one of only a small number of similar programs available nationwide. After completing our program you will be ready to fill a leadership role in criminal justice agencies and have a thorough understanding of the challenges facing them, and you’ll possess the expertise and skills to help address these problems. Our faculty members all have experience in law enforcement and criminal justice careers, and you’ll have the opportunity to benefit from the annual conference on crime and public administration.
