Overview

The Criminal Justice programme at University of Baltimore can earn both degrees concurrently by completing all required courses over a three- to four-year period.

What You’ll Learn

How it works:

You'll complete a minimum of 78 credits in the law school and a minimum of 30-33 credits in the M.S. program.
The UBalt School of Law recognizes 9 credits of the criminal justice requirements as transferable to its program (or 6 credits if the degrees are not completed within the same academic year), and the the College of Public Affairs reciprocally allows the transfer of up to 9 credits of law school courses to satisfy coursework requirements in the M.S. program.
You'll begin master’s program work during the summer preceding enrollment in the law school or during the summer after finishing the first year of law school, but you can't take courses within the master’s program during the fall and spring semesters of the first year of law school.
