About the Program
Salve Regina University's interest in providing education in the
area of the administration of justice has been defined by structuring
the Law Enforcement Leadership program. This program is designed
to respond more directly to the interests and needs of professionals
in the field of law enforcement at the local, regional and state
levels. Professionals in this field require an education that
prepares them for challenges of leadership and for opportunities
for career advancement. The Master of Science in Management: Concentration
in Law Enforcement Leadership program provides the knowledge and
skills necessary for enhancing a career in law enforcement management.
This degree program provides professionals in administration of
justice with a strong theoretical base for critical thinking,
problem solving and developing the leadership skills necessary
to respond to community needs and department responsibilities.
This program is structured to offer flexibility in scheduling
allowing students to take some courses on campus and some online.
This combination of learning opportunities allows the student
to study on a schedule that fits the various time demands on law
enforcement professionals. In addition, some courses are scheduled
for weekend and week-long formats.
For those who have not yet made a decision for graduate study
leading to a master's degree, 12-credit (four courses) graduate
certificate programs have been developed that allow students to
begin graduate studies and finish with a graduate certificate
if that is their goal. If the student decides to continue with
graduate studies, the four certificate courses also may be applied
toward the completion of the Master of Science degree.
Salve Regina University takes pride in its long-standing recognition
that professional education needs to include opportunities for
the integration of skills, knowledge and values. Courses and assignments
are developed to provide challenges to reflect upon learning activities
to assist in the student's professional growth.
On campus, Online or On-site
The Master of Science in Management may be earned by taking courses
at our beautiful Newport, R.I. campus, on-line through our eSalve
Graduate Extensions Studies option, or by participating in specially
designed programs, if available, on-site at your workplace. Many
students accelerate completion of their degree by taking a combination
of on-campus and on-line courses simultaneously. If you are interested
in sponsoring an on-site degree program at your place of employment,
please contact the Graduate Program Director for additional information.
