Advisors assist students with questions about curriculum, course sequencing, as well
as fulfilling requirements for graduation. We HIGHLY recommend students meet with
their advisor at least once per semester. Assignments and hours vary per semester.

The internship is an integral part of the Forensic Science and Justice Studies undergraduate
programs. All JS and FS majors are required to complete a three-unit internship course.
In an effort to reduce both our printing costs and ecological footprint, the Department
of Justice Studies now distributes all syllabi electronically as PDFs.
