| Mission Statement |
| |
| The mission of the Department of Criminal Justice and Sociology at Jamestown College is diverse. Sociology courses support the curricula in criminal justice, education and nursing; their aim is to sensitize the student to the role of social forces (e.g. homogenity, stratification, urbanization, and social institutions such as the family, education, religion, politics, and the economy) as they impact our individual and collective lives. |

| About Majors and Minors |
| |
| In Criminal Justice, students are prepared to pursue one of three distinct, though not necessarily exclusive, options. The focus of the major is a solid preparation for entry-level careers in law enforcement, corrections, or adult or juvenile probation and parole. In addition, however, those who aspire toward graduate degrees in academic criminology or law are well-served and prepared, though the latter, in particular, should select courses in consulation with the department chair. |
