Be an Agent of Change.
Take an interdisciplinary approach to studying the social and political legal systems in the United States and around the world through the Criminal Justice major at Springfield College. You’ll examine critical questions about the legal process, review the psychology behind why individuals commit crimes, and discuss how governments should balance individual rights and public safety. You’ll also experience your area of interest in the field firsthand through internship experiences.
Our graduates are prepared for graduate school or careers in national, state, and local government, law enforcement, corrections, and community mediation.
