Completing a practicum through Arts Worx provides you with an unparalleled opportunity to gain real-life experience and find out firsthand what it is like to work in the field of criminal justice. Your Partnership Development and Practicum Coordinator will help you find a placement that meets your interests and career goals.
All College of Arts students can complete a practicum as part of their degree program. As part of the Bachelor of Arts (Criminal Justice) degree program, students have the opportunity to take AIS 380 as part of their general education requirements.
Students in the Criminal Justice diploma programs may consider AIS 280 (when offered) as a practicum option in their program.
Please speak with your Program Advisor to see how you can add these opportunities to your program plan.
