Overview

The field of forensic psychology is both dynamic and growing. Only about 20 schools offer a bachelor’s degree in forensic psychology, and Tiffin University has become a leader in the field with our top-level, American Psychological Association-recognized program.

The Forensic Psychology program from Tiffin University is designed for students who are interested in examining the relationship between psychology and the criminal justice system. In this program, you will develop knowledge in the treatment of offenders, victimology, crisis intervention, counseling, psychopathology, personality assessment and research methods.

You’ll also study the application of psychological principles to the resolution of problems in the administration of criminal justice, such as jury selection, police stress and rehabilitation program design.

Forensic psychology graduates can begin careers in either a clinical setting where they work directly with offenders and victims, or in a research setting where empirical answers are sought to crucial issues affecting the administration of criminal justice.

Students graduating with a forensic psychology degree have a wide range of opportunities. Previous forensic psychology graduates have pursued advanced degrees and have gone on to be accepted to law school; master’s programs in criminal justice, forensic psychology, mental health counseling and school counseling; and doctoral programs in forensic psychology and clinical psychology.
