The criminal justice program prepares students for careers in policing, corrections, victim services, law and research. The program also has a criminal justice student association called Lambda Alpha Epsilon that allows students to learn and network in their field.

The recreation and leisure services program trains students to work in youth programming, commercial recreation, resorts, tourism or camps. Students are encouraged to participate in internships and get involved in the community to gain experience in this rewarding career.
The social work programs give students the opportunity to make a difference by helping communities, organizations, groups, families and individuals in fields like geriatrics, health care, child welfare and physical or developmental disabilities.
The nonprofit leadership studies program prepares the next generation of nonprofit sector leaders to help people around the world. This program is very diverse, and students learn about issues related to health services, education, social and legal services, civic and environmental advocacy, international relations and development, arts and culture, and human services. Students have the opportunity to work with local groups and communities to get hands-on experience in their fields.
