Overview
Students will develop the capacity to apply law, social sciences, and sound practices as criminal justice professionals in the public and private sectors.
The Criminal Justice - Forensic Science program at Southern Utah University also provides students a foundation upon which to pursue advanced education in the criminal justice field.
Education
Southern Utah University’s criminal justice bachelor’s degree program is an immersion in practical, street-based reality. Unlike many criminal justice programs, at SUU you won’t spend weeks reading about theories of criminal justice, you’ll gain the kind of practical experience you can actually apply in whatever branch of criminal justice you decide to enter.
On the SUU campus in Cedar City, Utah, there is a fully-functional mock courtroom, crime lab, mock crime scenes, and iPads with the actual software police officers use in their investigations of real crimes.
