Psychology is a discipline with a bright future. Among fields requiring a college degree, it is expected to be one of the fastest growing fields in America, and to continue to grow steadily for at least another dozen years after that. Our program is primarily concerned with applying psychological principles and skills to the understanding and functioning of the legal and criminal justice system.
Forensic psychology embraces psychology and law, and the psychology of policing, corrections, probation, and parole. It also focuses on victim services, juvenile justice and family services. Forensic psychology covers the full range of activities related to law enforcement and the evaluation and treatment of offenders.
