Overview
Overview
There is a continual need for crime fighters and analysts in many fields and organizations. A degree in criminology and criminal justice prepares you for careers in policing, courts and law, government agencies, nongovernmental organizations, correctional facilities, drug rehabilitation programs, homeland security, forensic science, battered women’s shelters, hospitals, victim assistance programs, insurance companies, research firms, counseling, and other areas that require a balance of research and professional skills.
Our Criminology and Criminal Justice program at The University of Akron, started by practitioners for practitioners, has for 50 years been educating thousands of in-service professionals in various stages of their careers. Our faculty understand the demands on your time because they have been there.
Also, whether you are a traditional high school graduate, experienced professional, or active or retired military service member, we will work with you to create your own path to success.
For example, research indicates that military students can feel isolated after transitioning from team-based military service to individual study at a university. Thus, we have adopted a cohort model for the online program, meaning you will take all of your first- and second-year courses with the same group of students — fostering a sense of community and improving your success in the program and after graduation.
