Internship and Employment Opportunities

There are a wide range of internship and employment opportunities in criminal justice at the local and national level. Below are some of the agencies that have current openings and/or with whom our students have interned or have obtained employment upon graduation. This is by no means an exhaustive list of internship/employment opportunities. The best approach to seeking an internship or employment is to go to city, county, state, or federal agency websites to explore current openings.
