Description
The American system of criminal justice is composed of three major components: law enforcement, the courts and corrections. It remains a rapidly growing professional and academic field. The Criminal Justice program at SUNY Niagara utilizes a strong behavioral science and general education foundation. It’s this combination of knowledge and interdisciplinary insight that provides the student of criminal justice with insight and understanding into the complex societal problem of crime and the administration of justice.
