Criminal Justice

The Criminal Justice A.S. program is designed to prepare students to transfer into a Criminal Justice bachelor's degree program. The program is writing and research intensive and parallels the first two years of a four-year Criminal Justice program.

This is the primary program for students who plan to complete a rigorous two-year study in Criminal Justice at Hudson Valley and then continue their education at the baccalaureate level and beyond.

The college also offers a Criminal Justice A.A.S. program. Contact the department to speak with an advisor about which degree program is right for you.
