Social Science: Criminal Justice Degree Info

The major in Social Science provides a wide-ranging, multi-disciplinary perspective through the use of introductions to government, history, geography, economics, and sociology. Students in the Criminal Justice, Government or History concentrations then complete a specific number of credit hours in their disciplines. Since this degree includes many elective credits, students wishing to maximize their transfer credits often choose this major. While some graduates pursue degrees in law enforcement, government, law or public administration, many will pursue jobs with private companies, government agencies, or non-profit organizations. Social Science degrees offer flexibility in designing a broad-based liberal arts education program that fulfills the goals of each individual student.

The largest of the five Baptist colleges, Campbell is also the second largest private university in the state. The University is a member of the Servicemembers Opportunity College and participates fully in SOCAD, SOCMAR and SOCNAV, which guarantee the transferability of selected credits. The Extended Campus Approach Campbell University understands that adult learners seek a balance between education, career, family and military responsibilities. The average Extended Campus student will complete 24-30 semester hours per year while attending classes only two nights per week. Classes are scheduled during the evenings, at lunch, and on Saturday. Weekday classes meet two nights per week with two class periods each night. Campbell’s Office of Distance Education offers internet courses each term which provide adult learners additional flexibility in degree completion. Additionally, most campuses have Blended courses, which meet in the classroom one night per week and have an internet component. Students normally enroll in two classes (six semester hours) during each of the five terms offered annually. This full time schedule qualifies students for financial aid and/or VA education entitlements. Campbell University believes that no student should be denied a college education for financial reasons. Low tuition rates at the extended campuses reflect this progressive philosophy. All students should see the financial aid representative for qualifying programs. The Next Step Arrange to meet with an Academic Counselor at the campus of your choice. Bring copies of transcripts from any previous institutions. Military members or veterans should also bring copies of their DD-214 and CCAF or AARTS/SMART transcripts. The Counselor will conduct an unofficial evaluation of transfer credits and make recommendations about appropriate courses for your first term at Campbell.
