Ne öğreneceğim?

Whether you dream of working in law enforcement, corrections, probation/parole, with at-risk youth or with victims of crime, Rivier’s Criminal Justice program will make your dream a reality.

With classes in law, behavioral, natural, and social sciences, as well as the humanities, all supported by Rivier’s core curriculum, you’ll develop the interpersonal skills, technology, and critical-thinking skills you’ll need to thrive in the workplace.

In this program you will:

  • Examine the criminal justice system and explore social welfare issues
  • Learn how to conduct criminal investigations
  • Use electronic databases to conduct research and analyze data

The department’s faculty bring both a wealth of knowledge and real-world experience to our classrooms, combining expertise in a variety of disciplines including law, political science, sociology, and history. They will guide you as you develop a full understanding of procedures and techniques to prepare you for a successful career in the field of criminal justice.

Experience the Field

Your classroom learning will be enhanced by hands-on experiences in the field. You will have the opportunity to go on police ride-along, tour prisons, visit courtrooms, and learn from faculty and guest lecturers currently practicing in the field.

You can participate in multiple internships after your first year. These experiences will challenge you to apply theoretical knowledge to real-life situations.

A series of foundational courses conclude with a required internship/practicum in a legal setting such as a police department, prosecutor or public defender’s offices, probation/parole officers, victim assistance bureau, or a correctional facility. You’ll leave your internship with an invaluable understanding of the pace and expectations of this unique and demanding calling.
