Justice Studies

Some see justice from the trenches; others view it from the benches. With Mount Royal University’s one-of-a-kind criminal justice program, you’ll learn to appreciate it from both perspectives.

Graduates are in high demand by a wide range of employers within the justice system and beyond. Career opportunities remain strong in traditional criminal justice agencies such as public, policing, federal and provincial corrections and Canada Border Services. Graduates will also be prepared for employment as probation and parole officers, youth outreach workers, crime statistic analysts, emergency communications officers, police officers and crisis intervention workers.

Pursue your criminal justice studies in a stimulating and supportive environment that features:

  • small class sizes with a personal atmosphere
  • hands-on faculty who are leaders in their fields
  • a blend of theory, experiential learning and research methodology
