Abstract

Forensic psychology examines the intersection of human behavior and criminal justice, and it applies theories and skills from psychology to the legal system, including areas such as law enforcement, corrections, victim services and the treatment of offenders. Forensic psychologists work in a variety of settings including correctional facilities, law enforcement agencies, police offices, school and university settings, community service agencies and private practices. In addition to being a springboard for graduate study in psychology, sociology, criminal justice and criminology, the 15-unit Certificate in Forensic Psychology complements undergraduate degrees in psychology, political science, sociology, anthropology, urban studies, biology and chemistry.
