AIU Online Criminal Justice Degree
About AIU Online Criminal Justice Degree Programs:
The study of criminal justice at the collegiate level generally leads in one of two directions. Many students seeking an associate's degree or a bachelor's in criminal justice are doing so in order to qualify for entry level law enforcement positions. Many police and sheriff's departments insist on some collegiate training for their recruits today. The same is true of many federal agencies.
Others are seeking professions in varying areas of the criminal justice system, including parole officer, probation officer, counselor, investigator, bailiff or some specialized role in the juvenile justice system.
AIU's Criminal Justice online degree programs offer options in both areas, with bachelor's degrees available with both law enforcement specialization and with a specialization in computer forensics, as well as a general criminal justice degree.
The area of computer forensics is growing both in mundane criminal proceedings and in the more sophisticated levels of white collar fraud that include falsified financial records, concealed accounts and multiple levels of electronic deception. With a criminal justice degree specializing in computer forensics, you will be a candidate for work with a number of federal agencies as well as for state and local opportunities.
