The criminology/criminal justice degree helps students develop the essential skills, dispositions, and insights necessary to function as servant-leaders in the various fields of criminology and criminal justice, while also preparing students for further graduate work in these and related fields such as law, social services, and research.
The criminology/criminal justice degree is for students who want to make a difference in their local communities. The criminal justice field can offer dozens of rewarding job opportunities in areas like crime prevention, victim advocacy, corrections and rehabilitation, and investigative work. Much of the recent community work around trauma has centered on the criminal justice system.
According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs in criminal justice are growing faster than average, and are expected to grow by about 5% from 2019 to 2029. In these jobs, students will positively impact their communities and beyond by being trained at Milligan as servant leaders with a quality education providing the knowledge and skills to do this career with excellence
