LeTourneau University's criminal justice degree programs broaden your vision of the challenges and opportunities in serving your community, state, and the nation through the discipline of criminal justice. Develop a vision for justice in your community while you study criminal law, policing, corrections, and criminology.

In this field, we grapple with questions of justice and peace and how you can work for the good of the community to which you are called. This approach, combined with our cooperation with local law enforcement agencies to offer hands-on training, means our degree programs provide both the perspective and experience you need to excel in your field and make a difference.

• A strong foundation in real-world knowledge of the field
