Your education will extend far beyond the classroom when pursuing a Cybercrime degree at Minnesota State Moorhead. Whether it’s a semester-long internship that leads to a job post-graduation or a weekly gathering with your peers, the opportunities to grow your knowledge and experience are nearly endless.
Alpha Phi Sigma, the National Criminal Justice Honor Society, recognizes academic excellence of undergraduate Criminal Justice majors who maintain a 3.5 GPA or higher, are nominated by faculty and are in the top 35 percent of their class. The goals of Alpha Phi Sigma are to honor and promote academic excellence, community service, educational leadership and unity.
Criminal Justice majors are encouraged to join MSUM’s Criminal Justice Association, a student-run organization focusing on criminal justice in today’s world. The group discusses topics with experts from various organizations to give you the opportunity to increase your knowledge and gain insight on current criminal justice issues.
If you want to live in an educational environment surrounded by others with the same passion for human services the Human Services learning community is for you. Learning communities provide outstanding opportunity to increase academic success and make connections with those in your major like criminal justice, psychology, social work or sociology.
MSU Moorhead’s Student Academic Conference (SAC) provides an opportunity for student researchers to present their work to faculty, administration, peers and the community in a formal academic setting each April. You’ll have the chance to present your hard work in a variety of ways—panel discussions, workshops, multimedia presentations, displays and demonstrations—and gather constructive feedback to help you better analyze and continue exploration.
Are you interested in exploring new cultures while furthering your education? Studying abroad with your peers and professors takes education to a whole new level, opening your eyes to fresh experiences and allowing you to further your education somewhere you might have never considered traveling.
