Over the past few decades, the faculty in the Department of Criminal Justice at UNC Charlotte has earned local, national, and international reputations in a variety of substantive areas. At the university level, the faculty won the prestigious 15th Annual Provost's Award for Excellence in Teaching. Additionally, in the Spring of 2015, our department was awarded the Provost's Award for Excellence in Undergraduate Academic Adivising. 

At the local level, these reputations have aided in the development and sustainment of collaborative relationships with agency staff and personnel within the surrounding communities. At the national and international levels, these reputations have positioned the Criminal Justice Department to be the 17th most productive Criminal Justice Department in the country.
