Overview

Throughout the Management - Criminal Justice Management curriculum at University of Maryland Global Campus, major emphasis is placed on the effects of rapid technological change on organizations and administrative processes, and the consequent ethical and moral responsibilities of managers to society at large.

Crime is a major concern today, and government agencies and businesses in the private sector are working hard to find effective responses. The field of criminal justice has expanded far beyond the traditional roles of the police, courts and corrections. Employers are actively seeking personnel trained in crime prevention, law enforcement, investigative forensics, crisis management and more.
