Program Description:
The Criminal Justice field is growing by leaps and bounds, offering to criminal justice professionals a vast number of exciting and rewarding career opportunities. At Hodges University, the Master of Science in Criminal Justice (MCJ) degree is designed as a contemporary study of the criminal justice system from a behavioral science perspective. The program is conceptually based, thereby offering students the opportunity to develop a theoretical understanding of criminal and deviant behavior that is applicable to the practical realities of the criminal justice professional. Course work includes the fascinating areas of forensics, abnormal and deviant behavior and terrorism.

The MCJ program is delivered entirely online, making it possible for students to continue full-time employment and family responsibilities while completing their graduate studies. The program consists of 30 credits (10 courses). Students choosing the online format may complete the program at their own pace, as long as all degree requirements are completed within five years.
