Overview

Why earn your Criminal Justice Studies degree at Bellarmine University?

In addition to applied and experiential classes that provide practical and “hands-on” knowledge, selected humanities courses in sociology, psychology, anthropology, and philosophy provide interpretations of issues involving crime and society that can only be found in a true liberal arts education. Faculty in the Criminal Justice Studies program have been selected because of their vast experience in the criminal justice field, from criminal profiling to police and correctional administration and law.

Community-Based Learning: Increasingly, classes in sociology, criminal justice studies, and anthropology are seeking to involve students in projects outside the classroom where they can engage the diverse communities that make up Louisville. These reciprocal relationships allow us to move beyond textbooks to learn about social, cultural, economic, and political issues, while making meaningful contributions to our city.
