At Lake City Community College the Criminal Justice program is committed to excellence in academics and training for both young people and experienced criminal justice professionals.  Graduates may choose from a wide variety of career fields:  local, state, or federal law enforecement and correction; juvenile justice; private security; or law.

Lake City Community College offers two-year Associate in Art/Science Degrees in which the interdisciplinary approach is utilized to train criminal justice professionals.  To accommmodate this approach, the criminal justice degree requires that half of the requisite course work be comprised of general education courses including Sociology, Mathematics, Communications, English and Science. These general education courses provide a solid foundation upon which students prepare for the analysis of social and human problems so necessary for functioning effectively within the criminal justice system.
