Heidelberg graduates have gone on to pursue a variety of careers in the fields of criminology and criminal justice from the local up the federal level. Our students are working as US Marshals, 联邦调查局特工, Corrections Officers, 警察, Drug and Alcohol Treatment Specialists, and Criminologists.
I made many connections and even friends at my junior year internship. The staff at the juvenile court is so great and personable. They were great to learn from and very professional and good at their jobs. The most valuable thing that I learned was how important these people are in our society. Rarely in the classroom do we talk about how the people who work for juvenile probation affect our youth, and they are making such big impacts on these children and their families.
One of the best part of Heidelberg is getting to know and working with your professors. You'll be supported and challenged as you develop skills and experiences centered around research you're interested in.
