The criminal justice degree program is designed to meet the needs of students pursuing a career in one of several areas of the criminal justice system. The curriculum provides students with both the opportunity and assistance to acquire the knowledge necessary to understand the roles of policing, courts, corrections, juvenile justice and laws as they contribute to social order.
It further provides a theoretical foundation of the discipline and offers a thorough understanding of contemporary scientific methods as applied to criminal justice.
The goal at Sul Ross State University-Rio Grande College is to provide students with a structured, nurturing environment conducive to learning.
