Overview

Because Criminal Justice has so many facets, we use an interdisciplinary approach to help you understand real-world issues.

Key facts

You’ll learn how to apply critical thinking, a social justice perspective, and civic responsibility to your decision-making process–both in your career and your life. You’ll have opportunities to conduct research with faculty, connect with professionals in the community, build relationships with your peers in the Criminal Justice Club, and visit jails, prisons, juvenile detention facilities, and the courts.

To cap it off, you’ll have a chance to apply the skills you’ve learned through a world-class criminal justice internship right in Flint. We offer a variety of placements to match your interests:

7th Judicial Circuit Court–Family Division

Genesee County Circuit Court

Genesee County Prosecutor’s Office

67th District Court Probation Department

Flint Police Department

Michigan State Police

Flint Center for Civil Justice

Genesee County Sheriff’s Department

Throughout your University of Michigan Flint experience, you’ll benefit from small classes–usually between 10 and 30 students–and one-on-one interactions with faculty and staff. And since we realize our students have diverse life commitments, we offer a flexible schedule with many classes online or in the evening.
