Program Overview

CRIMINOLOGY

 

The science behind crime and the criminal mind.

 

If you’re interested in a career in law enforcement or investigations, you might have wondered about the difference between criminology and criminal justice.

Criminology, a field born from sociology, is the study of crime and criminal behavior; criminal justice explores the systems established to handle crime. Both degrees prepare you to enter the law enforcement and legal fields after graduation, and employers especially value the conceptual thinking and cultural competency a criminology major brings to positions in investigations, parole and corrections.

UW-Whitewater offers the only criminology degree program in the state system, and it offers a balance between practical skills needed for careers in public safety and crime scene investigation and the foundational theories that help you understand “the why.”
