Criminal Justice
BU's criminal justice program prepares students for a career in the criminal justice and legal systems, as well as entry into graduate or law school.
Through a career-focused curriculum, students learn the history and philosophy of the legal and criminal justice systems, while exploring the latest trends in law and society with an emphasis on race, ethnicity, culture and gender.
The criminal justice faculty are strong academics who have practical experience in law and criminal justice professions, which they share in the classroom and through advising. In addition, the faculty are active researchers, as well as expert sources for local, state and national media.
