The Department of Criminal Justice/Security, a diverse learning community of educators and students in an urban setting, is dedicated to a multi-disciplinary education, merging theory and practice in service to justice and society.

The Department of Criminal Justice/Security is one of only 30 departments nation-wide that has undergone a satisfactory External Review by the Academy of Criminal Justice Sciences. The Department sponsors the Peter W. Rodino Jr. Institute of Criminal Justice, which is dedicated to improving the operations of the criminal justice system. It seeks to accomplish this by mobilizing the resources of the University, by reaching out to the community and by sponsoring conferences and seminars for professionals and the general public on critical criminal justice issues. The Department also sponsors a chapter of the American Criminal Justice Association’s Lambda Alpha Epsilon for its students.
