It is a goal of the department to encourage students to embrace the importance of life-long learning and to develop students’ abilities to view and understand criminal justice practices, concepts, and issues from an interdisciplinary perspective. The program is designed to develop the cognitive, analytical, communication, and social skills of students so they will succeed in an ever-changing world. The Master of Arts in Criminal Justice program is designed to provide students with a broad understanding of the criminal justice system, social control, and the nature of crime while developing the skills necessary to critically assess criminal justice problems and to conduct applied research and evaluation. Students may develop a plan of study that will prepare them for leadership roles in criminal justice agencies or to pursue doctoral study. The program is designed to accommodate both the working professional and the traditional student. Most of the coursework for this program is offered in the evening.

Description:
Health education is a social science that draws from the biological, environmental, psychological, physical, and medical sciences to promote health and prevent disease, disability, and premature death. Health education involves the development of individual, group, institutional, community, and systemic strategies to improve health knowledge, attitudes, skills, and behavior. The mission of the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in health education program is to prepare doctoral degree graduates in advanced study and research in community/public health. The program prepares advanced students to contribute to the field of health education through teaching, research, and service. Although health and research courses are required, the program is individualized through selection of elective courses and a cognate to develop each student for leadership roles in universities, the private health sector, or government agencies.

Description:
The Occupational Therapy Doctoral degree will lead students on a career path of excellence in practice, advocacy for the profession, leadership, and contribution to occupational therapy knowledge through research. Graduates will be autonomous decision makers using contemporary practice skills. Graduates will apply their education to a continuum of professional opportunities from programs aimed at prevention through those remediating health problems with the ultimate goal of maintaining and improving the quality of life of the public. The goal for the OTD program is for the student as a future therapist to have a personal commitment to the advancement of occupational therapy practice, advocacy, and research. The program's faculty view the graduate student as a future colleague. Like graduate programs of high quality in other fields, the OTD program brings faculty and students together in a joint effort to improve the field, not just to impart or absorb information. A graduate program involves the building of knowledge as well as the attainment of knowledge. Every course in the OTD program requires abstract reasoning as well as self-direction. As the OTD student acquires knowledge and skill, an important role is to teach fellow students. The graduate student not only learns about the past and present of the profession, but also shares in the design of the future of the profession. Upon graduation, the newly certified and licensed occupational therapist is well prepared to begin a career of excellence in practice, advocacy, and research.
