Criminology & Criminal Justice at NAU
At Northern Arizona University, our Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice (CCJ) graduates use their knowledge of criminology and justice to pursue meaningful and rewarding careers with integrity. Our CCJ graduates are critically informed citizens, who value diversity and social justice, and use this knowledge to advance the cause of justice.
CCJ students learn how social forces influence lawmaking, approaches to criminal justice, perceptions and experiences of justice; and how, in turn, criminal justice trends influence society.
Our Giving Day Priorities
On NAU Giving Day, we invite you to elevate what’s possible for our students by supporting key funds that make a lasting difference:
One of the primary goals of the CCJ Future Readiness Fund is to provide financial support for summer internships and other professional development opportunities that often come with costs that impact their accessibility.
The Justice Innovation Fund supports the creative and scholarly work of faculty and students and contributes to our collective ability to support the innovative activities of the CCJ community.
