Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice - Crime & Criminals

Walden University's new B.S. in Criminal Justice program is designed to help you gain the skills and knowledge to prepare for a career in law enforcement, the justice system, corrections, homeland security, and social services.

As crime continues to plague large cities and small communities throughout the world, the need for criminal investigators continues to grow.

In this concentration, you will study criminal theories and behavior, and you will discover the proper way to conduct a criminal investigation.

Areas of study include:

  • Assessing a crime scene
  • Handling witnesses, suspects, and informants
  • Administering surveillance techniques

The world of drugs, gangs, and organized crime will be explored, along with the impact of these group activities on crime and policing.

Consider this concentration if you are interested in exploring the world of gangs and organized crime units and task forces. Or consider it if you may be interested in working as a crime scene investigator, criminologist, researcher, or detective.
