In 1998, the School of Criminal Justice began offering its Masters in Criminal Justice program on the internet – the first online masters program in Criminal Justice, and the first online degree program offered by MSU. The program is rated in the Top 10 best Online Masters Programs in Criminal Justice by U.S. News & World Report.

The program is designed to add new dimensions to the skills of career people in various areas of criminal justice and security. A number of online support services are available to assist students as they progress through the program.

Students enrolled in the program may choose to follow the general requirements for the Master of Arts in Criminal Justice, specialize in Security Management or follow an international focus.

Courses are offered entirely online, and are taught by the same faculty members who are involved in the on-campus program. Many students complete the program within a year and a half to two years; however, it is also common for students to take three years to complete the program due to work and personal commitments.
