In so doing, the Center hopes to use the various electronic resources at its disposal to provide our students with the best possible academic advising as efficiently as possible.

Criminal Justice has one feature, however, that makes it unique among MCC majors. Students must complete two GE Mathematics courses or two GE four-credit science courses.

If the math sequence is chose, the College recommends MAT 123 and 124.
