Success in this program requires having the patience to solve complex technical problems, persisting through obstacles until reaching a resolution. This program offers many opportunities to work and communicate with instructors and classmates, but you are also expected to be responsible, motivated, and able to work independently. Even with the support of our instructors and staff, time management will be needed for balancing coursework with other obligations. Building strong time management skills will help you to juggle your course load.
Excellent communication, critical thinking, and decision-making skills will also be a focus of this program. With so much on the line in important cases, knowing how to speak and write for a variety of audiences is vital in the criminal justice and computer forensics areas.

One of the major reasons I chose South College was for the smaller class sizes. It allows more one-on-one time between students and professors, which enhances the learning experience for me.

I went to college originally straight out of high school with the intent of majoring in musical performance with a concentration in theoretical studies. I was not prepared to for college at that point, so I decided to gain some experience and maturity by joining the work force full-time. After working for 10 years, I felt it was time to try school again.
