Criminal Justice (CJUS)

This inter-college program administered by the Department of Rural Sociology is available to students majoring in any field at SDSU. The purposes of this program are 1) to provide qualified personnel for all segments of the Criminal Justice system; and 2) to help improve the competence and professional status of existing Criminal Justice personnel.

To enter the minor in Criminal Justice a student must have a cumulative GPA of at least 2.2 and take a total of 18 credit hours from courses offered in Criminal Justice and selected courses available in Sociology, Psychology and Political Science. Six of these 18 hours consist of two required courses (CJUS 201 and SOC 351). The remaining 12 hours may be selected from the list of CJUS electives. An internship (SOC 494) is strongly recommended as an addition to these hours (See Sociology Internship Coordinator one semester in advance of field placement).

Students desiring more information or interested in minoring in Criminal Justice should consult with the coordinator of the program no later than the beginning of their junior year.
