Overview

Through the Criminology BA programme from Albright College you will go deeper at the Criminology program of Albright College, by studying the causes and social reactions to crime, within the context of other social issues such as family dysfunction, cultural conflict, poverty and education.

And go beyond the classroom with hands-on experience in juvenile probation, justice administration, adult parole/probation, corrections or victimization. Take on a federal law enforcement internship or stay closer to home in state or local police departments, courts or attorney offices, victim service agencies or homes for at-risk youth.

Key facts:

While many graduates find employment with an Albright bachelor’s degree, many others seek to gain additional specialization by earning a graduate degree in criminology or another related field such as criminal justice, psychology, law, social work, public administration or urban studies.

In addition to working for various law enforcement agencies at the local, state and national level, criminologists find employment with nonprofits, activist groups, social service agencies, research positions and other government institutions.

Albright graduates have gone on to careers in law, government, business and industry. Recent graduates are employed as administrators, intelligence analysts, case managers, criminal investigators, research scholars, parole officers, detectives, counselors and wardens.
