Dominican College Announces Online Criminal Justice Program

The College is pleased to announce the launch of the online Criminal Justice Program. The Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice with a specialization in Legal Studies is specifically designed to provide students with an understanding of legal considerations within the three areas of the criminal justice system: police, courts, and corrections.

The criminal justice major offers a variety of courses pertaining to the essential elements of criminal justice as well as a thorough comprehension of relevant theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches used to explore criminal behavior and its various permutations. The online criminal justice program was developed utilizing the same philosophy, principles, and goals that have governed the existing traditional program since its inception in 2008: provide students with the tools they need to understand the complexity of the criminal justice system while promoting personal growth and concrete skills. The program offers students an engaging online experience with all of the support and personal attention that Dominican College is known for.

The program requires 51 credits in the criminal justice core and additional general education credits, all of which are completed with eight-week sessions. A final capstone course is completed in the final semester in which the student demonstrates their knowledge and competence in the discipline of criminal justice by preparing, presenting and submitting a research project on a self-selected, instructor-approved topic central to the field.
