CRJU 0651 - Addiction Studies Concentration


Credits: 6

This capstone experience is offered to graduate students who wish to enhance their criminal justice education through work in the field of alcohol studies. Separately, and at an additional expense, students will enroll in an intensive one-year series of courses including: Substance Abuse and Criminal Justice, Delivery of Alcoholism/Chemical Dependency Treatment Services, Counseling the Alcoholic and other Chemically Dependent Persons, Psychopharmacology, Family Alcoholism and Chemical Dependency Treatment and Co-occurring Disorders. A practicum, in which students work under professional supervision in a licensed alcoholism/chemical dependency treatment facility, is required. Students will write a scholarly paper that is based in these experiences and that integrates this new body of knowledge with prior graduate coursework
