Northeastern University’s Online Masters in Criminal Justice Leadership offers a groundbreaking degree program. This graduate degree can be completed entirely online, with an exception of a one week workshop in Boston, MA. Granted Northeastern University is highly esteemed in the career and academic arenas, I’m sure you won’t mind a little respite in Boston – but then I could be wrong.
Northeastern University is offering the following courses for its online Master of Criminal Justice in Leadership degree program:
Foundation Courses
- The Justice Seminar – this is the 1 week trip I was talking about
- Criminal Justice Capstone
- Criminological Theory for Criminal Justice Leaders
- Legal Decision Making and Leadership
- U.S. Policing in the 21st Century
You’ll also be required to take one of the following online courses – so choose wisely
- Creating Leadership Capacity
- Organizational Leadership Seminar
Operations Courses
- Research Methods
- Risk Management
- Managing and Using Program Evaluations
- GIS, Evidence-Based Learning, and Policy
- Financial Management for Nonprofit Organizations
Elective Courses
- Communities and Crime
- Youth Justice and Crime
- Models of Intelligence-led Policing
- Law Enforcement Management and Planning
You’ll only be required to take only one of the aforementioned elective classes.
I am a strong proponent of education, especially when dealing with concepts of obtaining the right career and getting that long-awaited promotion. Northeastern University gets two thumbs up from me.
