Keeping people safe, making the world a better place—these things are not as simple as putting those who break the law in jail. Justice is more complex than that, and our system needs people who can study and maintain it. We need you to ask questions about our social structures as a whole—to understand not just the implications our constructs have on crime, but what we can change for the better. Here at Loyno you’ll study the structure of the justice system, the ethical questions surrounding the imprisonment and rehabilitation process, and the operation of homeland security and the Supreme Court so that you have the tools to make a career out of sustaining justice.
Here’s a sample of what you can expect to learn and do:
Organized Crime
This course covers the nature of organized crime; its history in America; the new forms it takes; theories explaining emergence, development, and persistence; and the unique problems law enforcement encounter in controlling organized crime. The nature of organized crime as a unique type of criminal activity are discussed as well as new variations of organized crime such as the Russian Mafia and Trans-National Organized Crime.
Forensic Psychology
The goal of this course is to familiarize students with the field of Forensic Psychology. Students will be given a general overview of police “calls for service”, negotiation teams and strategies, serial killers, school shootings, stalkers, home grown terrorists, and some of the roles of mental health professionals in the criminal justice field.
