Michigan State University (MSU) – Master of Criminal Justice

by Radek M. Gadek

Criminal Justice Online - Respected, Regionally Accredited, & Asynchronous Michigan State University is one of the best places in U.S. to study Criminal Justice and other Criminology programs. MSU initiated its online Masters in Criminal Justice program back in 1998, making it the first degree program on the Internet from Michigan State. Quite frankly, it is one of the first prestigious programs on the Net.

Michigan State University is offering the following Master level Criminal Justice courses:

  • CJ 887 Quantitative Methods in Criminal Justice Research
  • CJ 890 Independent Study
  • CJ 894 Practicum
  • CJ 896 Policy Analysis Under Conditions of Change

* Courses may change from time to time.

The Criminal Justice program at MSU may take you 2 to 3 years to complete. Michigan State University is highly respected in the law enforcement field, the academia, and has an enormous presence in the media.

MSU was one of the schools I considered attending to complete my graduate degree. I applied to only three schools: Michigan State University, Boston University, & University of Cincinnati. I was accepted to all of them, amidst the high level of competition and limited space. I researched all of them and conclusively found that MSU is one of the best schools worldwide which you can consider for your graduate studies, including a PhD.

Hi,

I have recently graduated with a Post Graduate Diploma in Criminal Intelligence (with Distinction) at Charles Sturt University in Australia, & am looking to forward my studies at Masters Degree level.

Could you please provide more information on the course stucture, fees & whether you will give me credit for my study at CSU?

Regards,

Trevor

Trevor,

I am not a Michigan State University (MSU) representative, or any other school’s rep for that matter. Therefore, you will have to contact them by going to the link right at the end of the blog post (above). Once on MSU’s website you can find out more about the program and other relevant information. You’ll also have the chance to get in touch with someone that can help you further.

Congratulations on your achievements and good luck to you.

Whew!! The MSU program looks GREAT! Would a background like that, on top of communications and journalism, provide the basics needed for think tank or systems analysis, in crime and prevention, particularly across borders? At middle age? It seems light in the academic theory department as background for teaching in a college or junior college but strong in practicality, yes?
