Program Description
Police studies is the academic study of the different facets of police institutions and practices through which students understand the legal, political, and social influences shaping policing and its impacts on crime and society. The major in police studies is intended to promote critical thinking about social issues in a policing environment. This program would be beneficial if students have a scholarly interest in policing, corrections or law enforcement. It has been specifically designed to address the demands of police work, with many courses available through distance learning. The major in police studies does not constitute a qualification in policing. Admission Requirements
