Justice technology
In todays ever-changing world law enforcement
has become more important than ever.
Technological advances continue to improve our
ability to protect valuable information and
analyze evidence but keeping abreast of the
available technology is a challenge that law
enforcement faces. Crimes are not committed in
the same realm as they were twenty years ago, nor
are they investigated with all of the same
techniques. Computers advanced technology have
added a whole new dimension to law enforcement.
Careers in the fields of security and law
enforcement have risen in the past two years and
as our security continues to be threatened, the
need will continue to rise. Government agencies,
security firms, police agencies and corporations
have and will continue to have the need for
well-trained individuals who have the ability to
approach security enforcement, investigation and
forensics on all levels. The Justice Technology
Program helps to achieve exactly that. The major
focus is on building the abilities and skills
necessary for modern justice technology with a
specific focus on evidence and computer
forensics. Students in this program receive
hands-on training to familiarize them with the
tools, techniques and management issues faced in
the new age of law enforcement. Computer and
evidence forensics courses cover computer virus
issues and prevention, how to retrieve
information from a computer system to assist in
solving crimes, courses also cover the various
techniques used to collect and analyze evidence.
Students in this program receive preparation for
ACT 235 with classroom instruction and time at a
shooting range. Students in this program receive
a laptop computer and an evidence kit which are
utilized in the classroom. Graduates of this
program will receive a diploma in Justice
Technology.
