Why Choose Criminology and Criminal Justice?

One of the greatest social needs today is public safety and security. The increased complexity and diversity of contemporary society, its technological development and legal evolution, and its interdependence with other societies necessitate that those we entrust with our public safety be well-educated.

In today's world, criminologists working in criminal justice must have excellent communication skills; critical thinking and problem-solving abilities; sensitivity to those of different racial, cultural,

socioeconomic, and gender groups; the ability to speak a foreign language; and computer literacy

It is also important for those working in the criminal justice fields to have a good understanding of the operation of various components of the criminal justice system, the social causes and consequences of crime and victimization, and the role of social policy in shaping our society's response to and control of criminal behavior.
