The Slippery Rock Criminology and Criminal Justice program’s online Master of Arts degree in Criminal Justice provides an opportunity for working professionals in the criminal justice field to attain a graduate degree for career enhancement, as well as for traditional graduate learners who value the accessibility of an online program.

Along with coursework in the three components of the criminal justice system (policing, courts and corrections), the SRU M.A. program offers an optional community corrections specialization. Additionally, the program includes coursework in advanced criminological theory, research and statistical methodologies. This program is designed to serve the educational needs of working criminal justice professionals in Western Pennsylvania and elsewhere. The curriculum offers flexibility for professionals in the field who desire an advanced CJ degree for workforce enhancement purposes, as well as ensuring a quality Master’s level credential for learners who may aspire to doctorate level work.
