CRIMINAL JUSTICE
The American Criminal Justice system is organized into three major divisions:
law enforcement, corrections, and courts. Each sub-divides
into a variety of agencies, and all offer a wide range of
both traditional and non-tradi-tional career opportunities.
The system, its subdivisions, and many of its employment opportunities
exist in part or whole at all four levels of government: city,
county, state, and national.
Monroe College’s unique location, New York City - home to the nation’s largest
police department and municipal court systems - surrounded
by large populous counties
- in a state with the nation’s largest state level criminal justice system - makes
it an ideal conduit for qualified criminal justice employees
to all levels and sub divisions of the system.
Graduates of the Associate in Science degree program will be prepared for entry-level
positions in a host of agencies. The program is designed for
the generalist who wants to work in the field of criminal
justice but does not yet have a clearly defined goal.
