Description: The Police Science Program provides students with a liberal education, while offering students academic preparation through an expanding law enforcement role in society. The program also offers a base for graduate 210 Social Sciences Police Science study and seeks to contribute significantly to the improvement of the quality of police service. Education: State and Federal agencies in the recent past have estabished advanced academic standards for law enforcement personnel. Education is becoming a more meaningful factor in selection of law enforcement personnel for initial employment, promotion and for administrative roles. Employment Outlook: The demand for criminal justice personnel with academic qualifications in this relatively recent area of interest is increasing. National standards and goals have been formulated with defined minimum qualifications. Opportunities for employment within the criminal justice field are excellent.
