Ohio State University’s BA in Criminology and Criminal Justice Studies explores the structure and impact of the justice system through sociological, psychological, and legal lenses. Students investigate the root causes of crime, the effectiveness of policies, and the social impact of incarceration. The curriculum blends theory with real-world application through internships, research, and community-based learning. The program prepares students for careers in law enforcement, public policy, law, victim advocacy, and criminal justice reform, and encourages critical reflection on justice, equity, and social responsibility.
