Cohort Study
As a student in the Curry College MACJ Program, you will be part of a cohort group beginning in the fall of 2012. That means that the same students will be in all of your classes for the entire program, start to finish. Cohort group learning has proven to be very effective for adult learners because it creates a community of professionals who can study together, provide support, discuss common on-the-job problems, and offer networking opportunities.
Two cases of exonerated individuals were the focus of "The Innocence Panel," a discussion hosted at Curry College in the Spring of 2012.
"I tell my students at the beginning of each semester, 'In my class, I need you to bring your 'A' game...everyday.' We really do take it to another level," says Criminal Justice Professor Jen Balboni.
"My Curry College degree has enhanced my career. I believe I am now able to better communicate with citizens, co-workers, and supervisors."
"The professors I've had in the courses I have taken have had an enormous positive effect on not only my job performance, but on me as well. I have learned a lot through the MACJ program and will use what I have learned throughout the rest of my career."
"I knew a master's degree from Curry College would be of great value. I was impressed with the course offerings and felt as though I could learn a bundle of new information pertaining to criminal justice that had not been covered during my undergrad work."
