Wake Tech is closed on Monday in observance of Memorial Day. Prospective students can still apply online, and current students can register for Summer and Fall classes. The college will reopen Tuesday morning.
The Criminal Justice programs include a traditional, two-year associate degree. Shorter-term certificate programs also are available.
The format is 100% online for A55180 and a hybrid format for A5518C.
Once you have completed the Wake Tech admission process, you can meet with a faculty member, the department head or a member of the Public Safety Care Team.
We follow a traditional Fall/Spring semester schedule. A limited number of classes are offered in the Summer term.
Criminal Justice classes are taught at the Southern Wake and Scott Northern Wake campuses in addition to the Public Safety Education Campus, at 321 Chapanoke Road in Raleigh.
If you are a sworn police officer, you can receive up to 18 semester credit hours toward your Criminal Justice degree.
You can transfer to a four-year institution to continue your education, via agreements between Wake Tech and other colleges and universities. The Criminal Justice faculty, the department head and the Public Safety Care Team welcome questions about your post-graduation options.
