Criminal Justice (AACJ)

Associate in Arts

This associate degree program helps prepare students for jobs in the courts and in corrections (such as probation and parole), as well as state and federal law enforcement. Most, but not all, of these jobs require at least a bachelor's degree, and students can complete their first 3 years at WCC before transferring to a 4-year college or university such as EMU for their final year.

This is a high demand, high skill and high wage program as defined by the Michigan Community College Network.
