Welcome to Criminal Justice Studies at SFSU
The Criminal Justice Studies (CJS) department offers academic degree programs that focus on the connections between law, crime and justice systems through the lens of social justice.
CJS students learn to hone their critical thinking skills by exploring how ideas and systems influence individual and community experiences. In addition, students obtain hands-on experience and learn to develop advocacy skills that are applicable both inside and outside of the system as well as a wide range of public and private sectors.

From Our Students
One of the most important things I've learned here at SF State was to "Arm Yourself...with Knowledge!". This quote comes from one of the most influential people I've met here at SF State, Professor James Dudley.
