Program Overview

The Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice provides undergraduate students with a high quality criminal justice education to prepare them for future success in public service, law school, graduate school, or private sector. Currently, the bachelor of arts in criminal justice degree program is mostly offered in a traditional setting and on campus; only a few criminal justice classes are offered online as part of our online minor. However, a minor in criminal justice can be completed by any currently enrolled Marshall student by simply completing CJ 200 plus any four other CJ courses of his/her choice.
