Course Overview

 A degree in criminology and criminal justice provides a comprehensive academic foundation to the nature of criminal offending, victimization, law enforcement, court administration, the law, and both community and institutional corrections.

Consistent with Saint Louis University’s Jesuit tradition, the criminology and criminal justice program seeks to strengthen the criminal justice systems and, more importantly, communities by focusing on the factors that cause crime and violence and on the humanity of victims, offenders and practitioners. This major is a good fit for students interested in legal studies, law enforcement at the local, state, or federal levels and working with adults and/or juveniles in correctional settings as well as those pursuing graduate education or a law degree.

The program is innovative in its approach to improving the justice systems by focusing on the humanity of those involved in and impacted by crime and violence in communities.
The program challenges and engages students intellectually with the latest in criminological and criminal justice theory, research and practice.
The major offers students the opportunity to live what they learn through compassionate service.
