About Bachelor of Arts - Criminology and Criminal Justice Studies
Program Description
The Criminology and Criminal Justice Studies Department at Sonoma State University invites you to join us in the study of crime, criminology, criminal justice and society.
The Criminology and Criminal Justice Studies major offers a liberal arts curriculum concerned with the changing nature and content of law; the shifting public expectations of criminal justice agencies; the implications of diversity along the lines of race, gender, and class; and the reactions of those agencies to social perceptions and political pressures.
This general but all-important background serves as a base for the areas of emphasis that are of interest to the individual student. Adult and juvenile probation, law enforcement, judicial administration, public advocacy, prevention and diversion, and correctional and parole services are studied in detail from several perspectives. Criminology and criminal justice studies majors are prepared to pursue careers in the field of criminal and social services as well as graduate education in justice studies, law, criminology and other graduate fields.
