Overview

In this program, students will get more than an academic background. They will also get hands-on experience actually doing the things that peace officers do every day. Students will learn how to use a baton and handcuffs, and how to take finger, foot and tire prints by actually doing it all. There is even a state-of-the-art firearms training simulator. The curriculum is aligned with the California Peace Officer Standards and Training learning domains, and stays up-to-date and relevant thanks to strong relationships with local law enforcement. The active board of advisers includes representatives from the Richmond, San Pablo, Concord, Brentwood and El Cerrito police departments as well as the county probation and District Attorney’s offices. In fact, a large percentage of the officers working at the local police departments started out right here. The law enforcement degree prepares students for careers in law enforcement with particular preparation for state and federal training academies.
