Criminal Justice
Students desiring careers in Criminal Justice may elect a program of study designed for upper division transfer, or one which is oriented toward job entry with employment at a local, State, or Federal Law Enforcement Agency. Students intending to transfer to a four-year college should consult that college for specific requirements, visit the Assist website at www.assist.org, and consult with a CMC counselor. Students planning to pursue a career in Criminal Justice after graduation should include more specialization and emphasis in these courses. There are certain minimum physical and good moral character requirements for peace officers. Students may obtain more specific information about those requirements from the department staff . Students who are transferring to Copper Mountain College from another college must take at least six (6) units of Criminal Justice courses at Copper Mountain College, in addition to regular required courses to be eligible for graduation. Certification and approval of the Criminal Justice curriculum has been received from the California State Commission of Peace Officer Standards and Training.
