Are you a highly intuitive, courageous person with a heart for others and a desire to protect your community? Are you a problem solver who enjoys critical thinking exercises? If so, you may be interested in pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice at Regis.
Criminal Justice is an intellectually stimulating field, where you can devise your own theory and research as you contribute your input in a variety of ways. A criminal justice degree may allow you to work on issues such as mass incarceration, with law enforcement or with community groups who work to decrease crime in a particular area or among a particular population.
Criminal Justice is a major that works well for many different types of people. This is a subfield of sociology so you must be interested in the well-being of humans as a whole. Once engaged in work, you’ll endeavor to improve the quality of life for a diverse range of people.
