Introduction
This program prepares students for careers in law enforcement agencies such as municipal police departments, county sheriffs' departments, state police, and private security concerns. The program includes general education courses and emphasizes criminal justice courses and supportive social science courses.
Law enforcement majors pursue careers as municipal police officers, sheriffs' deputies, state troopers, and private security guards. The job market in law enforcement is closely tied to legislation to fund it. If tax-supported law enforcement funding does not meet society's demand for law enforcement, growth will occur in the market for trained personnel in private security.
