Both our MBA and M.S. in Criminal Justice can be completed in four semesters. Because Monroe offers students the opportunity to take three complete semesters each year, students can complete their Master’s degree program in 16 months.
Because many of our graduate students are working full time, many need the flexibility of online learning. You can complete either your MBA or MS in Criminal Justice completely online through Monroe Online. And because our online programs are taught by the same on-campus professors and our Academic calendars are completely aligned, students have the option of switching between on campus and online as the need arises.
No. The MS in Criminal Justice also appeals to students that are interested in Human Services. In fact, Human Services as well as Community Development are two of three available concentrations in this program.
