Criminal Justice
www. linnbenton. edu / go / criminal-justice
Oregon law enforcement agencies are facing a growing need to replace large numbers of retiring officers. In addition, the prison industry and areas of law enforcement such as crime analysis are predicted to expand in the 21st century. Law enforcement agencies commonly seek candidates who have a minimum of a two-year degree, and many give preference to candidates with four-year degrees. Students interested in a two-year degree should pursue the Associate of Applied Science( AAS) degree. Students interested in transferring and completing a four-year degree should consider the Associate of Arts, Oregon Transfer( AAOT) degree. We also offer a track within our Associate of Science( AS) degree in Sociology for students interested in transferring into the Crime and Justice option of the Sociology program at Oregon State University. Please see the catalog section for Sociology for more information, and talk to your advisor.
