CJS 496 SeniorSeminar:Crim Jus Systems

Senior Seminar in the Administration of Criminal Justice is intended to serve both Criminal Justice and Forensic Psychology majors. The same assessment standards will be applied to students from both academic disciplines but the assessment protocols created by the Psychology Department for its Senior Seminar will be applied to the Forensic Psychology majors in this course for the capstone writing project. The purpose of this bifurcation of protocols is to enable to the Psychology Department to produce assessment data for their students that is consistent across Senior Seminar sections. Finally, the subject matter of the assignments will be discipline specific. In other words, Criminal Justice majors will be directed toward traditional administration of criminal justice topics while Forensic Psychology majors will be directed toward topical issues that define the intersection of criminal justice administration and clinical psychology. Fulfills writing intensive requirement.
