The curriculum in 刑事司法 has been designed to expand the knowledge of students so they may seek employment in the various fields of law enforcement. This curriculum is applicable to both the preparatory student and the active police officer. If students wish to pursue a four-year degree, many of the courses will transfer to a four-year institution. WCC has articulation agreements with some four-year institutions where the student can enroll as a junior.

奥斯卡道: A student who meets the requirements may select the academy tract which means he/she can complete three semesters at WCC and the last semester at the New River 刑事司法 Training Academy.

Students are urged to consult with their faculty advisor and the 学生服务 Office in planning their program and selecting electives. Upon satisfactory completion of the four semester program, the graduate will be awarded the Associate of Applied Science 学位 with a major in 刑事司法.
A coordinated internship is required of all students working toward the Associate 学位 in 刑事司法 unless waived by the college in lieu of approved course work, provided student is or has been employed by a criminal justice agency. The program is designed to broaden the classroom experience through assignment in public governmental criminal justice agencies for 180 hours during one semester. Students should gain first-hand knowledge and greater understanding of the network of criminal justice agencies and how they serve the community. Students should also integrate and apply knowledge, 理论, and understanding derived from foundation courses to the practical solutions to problems encountered during their internship.
