124 Department of Criminal Justice DEPARTMENT OF Mr. Kenneth R. Lang, Department Chairperson Assistant Professors: K. Lang, K. Treece, A. Trimble, J. Yeager The Criminal Justice Program is dedicated to providing our students with the career-focused skills and knowledge necessary to enter the exciting career opportunities in law enforcement, corrections, probation, parole, and homeland security. Glenville State College s high quality academic curriculum and dynamic learning environment foster the highest standards that those entering the criminal justice field require. At Glenville State College, every student receives the individualized attention that he/she needs for a successful academic experience. Our highly trained and well qualified criminal justice faculty have backgrounds in law enforcement, courts, corrections, probation and parole at all levels of the criminal justice system. The collective experiences of the faculty enhance the implementation of practical applications into the classroom. This is exemplified by the dynamic scenario-based training students receive both on and off campus. The use of Glenville State College s crime scene house and the Morris Training Center provides opportunities for students to have individualized hands-on experience. The Criminal Justice Program offers both four year and two year degrees. Students will experience a general overview of the criminal justice system in the criminal justice core classes while gaining specialized knowledge in one of the two criminal justice concentrations: Administration of Justice and Field Forensics. The program curriculum includes criminal and procedural law, crime scene and advanced crime scene management, cyber-crime, organized crime, criminology, juvenile justice, organized crime, interviewing and interrogation, probation and parole, homeland security, and many more exciting classes. All students will experience a 240 hour internship in a setting of their choice. In addition to academic advancement, students are offered participation in criminal justice organizations. The American Criminal Justice Association Fraternity Lambda Alpha Epsilon provides learning opportunities, field trips, and networking services outside of the classroom. The Department is also a sponsor of the Pioneer Shooting Club, an affiliate of the International Defensive Pistol Association. This club hosts and travels to regional and national shooting competitions. Both clubs are active on campus and within the local community.
