The minor in Justice Studies
A minor course of study in JUS can be pursued by any student working towards a baccalaureate degree at KSU. The Justice Studies minor is useful in conjunction with majors in Psychology, Sociology, Political Science and Applied Conflict Management, as well as for those students interested in forensics (majoring in biology, for example) or federal law enforcement (who are majoring in accounting or a foreign language). To declare the minor, make an appointment to see an advisor in the College of Arts and Sciences in 105 Bowman Hall. At the undergraduate level, the goals of the Department are to provide all justice studies students with a broad understanding of the functions, roles, and critical issues within all of the components of criminal, juvenile, and civil justice. We seek to equip majors with the necessary knowledge, insight, and sensitivity to occupy positions in public and private criminal justice agencies and to encourage further professional development and graduate education.
Additional program information
If you desire more information, please see a faculty advisor in the Department during their office hours (113 Bowman Hall). Students are strongly encouraged to seek advising. Not sure if this is the right program for you? See Is this the right major for me? and our FAQ page .
