Program details

Overview

This online graduate certificate concentrates on key problems facing the American criminal justice system, including policy analysis and modern decision-making models. It is designed for people already working across law enforcement, judicial systems, correctional facilities, security work and allied agencies who want a focused credential without committing to a full degree. Students in this short credential study how decisions are made in the justice system and how policy is analyzed. Because it is taken online, it fits around a busy work schedule, and it offers a way to build specialized knowledge that may later be applied to further graduate study. Prospective students can reach an enrollment specialist by submitting an inquiry form, and applicants living abroad are pointed to a separate international form. The next start listed is November 30, 2026. An online tool also lets visitors sketch a personal plan covering scholarships, financial aid and transfer credit.
