Psychology / Criminology and Justice, Bachelor of Arts / Master of Arts

St. John's University

You can complete both a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Psychology and a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Criminology and Justice in just five years of full-time study through this combined degree program, offered by St. John’s College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. In your first four years of study, you complete requirements for the undergraduate degree in Psychology. You learn the psychological, social and biological processes underlying normal and abnormal behavior, as well as how to think critically and integrate theory with research about behavior. In your third year, you begin to take graduate courses in Criminology and Justice that cover the traditional forms of street crime and newer forms of criminality, including terrorism, international drug trafficking, cyber-crime, multinational white-collar crime and international organized crime. You learn both traditional theories and descriptions of crime, as well as modern interpretations and research methodologies.
