The Master of Science in Criminology and Criminal Justice at Northeastern University's College of Social Sciences and Humanities prepares students for professional and research careers by applying multidisciplinary and comparative social sciences to understand, predict, and explain crime. The program emphasizes theoretical foundations, social research methods, policy analysis, and practical skills. Students complete four required courses and four electives (totaling 32 credits), with options for further specialization via concentrations such as Cybersecurity. Hands-on learning opportunities, including co-op placements and directed studies, further reinforce both academic and applied skills in areas including criminal justice process, theoretical and quantitative perspectives on crime, and contemporary policy analysis. Graduates are equipped to pursue roles in criminal justice, research, policy-making, law enforcement, cybersecurity, and non-profit or government agencies.
