Program overview

What Monroe University says about their program:

What is forensic psychology? We’ve all seen the many portrayals of it in TV and film — but what is it really like? What does it take to build a forensic psychology career right here in the real world?

At our King Graduate School, you won’t just get an answer to the question — you’ll get the many tools you need to build a rewarding career of your own. Our Forensic Psychology Master’s program will give you a solid foundation in the clinical, legal, and analytical skills you need to succeed — and lead — at every level of our criminal justice system, from investigation to conviction and beyond.
