Introduction to Criminal Justice
Description:
Students are given an overview of the field of criminal justice in the context of our social, cultural, political and economic system. This course introduces students to the history of and social response to crime and examines the origins of and fundamental concepts associated with law enforcement and corrections. The structure and functions of State and Federal courts are reviewed and current issues in criminal justice are explored.
