nk you for considering the graduate programs of John Jay College of Criminal Justice. A world leader in educating for justice since 1964, John Jay offers a rich liberal arts and professional studies curriculum to a diverse and highly motivated student body.
At John Jay, we define justice in our teaching and research both narrowly, with an eye toward meeting the needs of criminal justice and public service agencies, and broadly, in terms of enduring questions about fairness, equality and the rule of law.
