JADM Courses Term 3-2013


Aloha JADM Majors,

Here are the JADM courses offered this term at Hickam (Term-3, 2013):

COM 3420 Business Communication
This course fulfills the Upper-Division Research/Writing requirement for JADM majors. Even though most may not think this course would be relevant for JADM majors, having an understanding of how to communicate professionally may be helpful in all career fields. Students have enjoyed communication courses taught by Professor Stephen Litschauer and I think you will too. Course is offered on Mondays.
JADM 1000 Crimes and Criminals
I know this class is not quite appealing since it’s on a Saturday but it’s a great intro to the JADM program. Also, no writing prerequisite is required for the class so if you are still taking Writing and would like to start delving into JADM courses, this would be a good choice.
JADM 2000 Laws & Courts in World Cultures
Professor Randall Harakal will be teaching this course, another introductory JADM course. He has taught at the Main Campus and students have enjoyed his class. Course will be offered on Tuesdays.

JADM 2060 Civil/Criminal Justice Systems
**Used to be JADM 3060; this course will satisfy the JADM 3060 requirement**
Judge Randal Lee will be teaching this course on Thursdays.

JADM 3310 Law Enforcement: Contemporary Issues
Professor John Little will be teaching this class again this term (offered on Wednesdays).

JADM 3540 Women, Minorities and Justice
This course is an option for the Upper-Division JADM Elective requirement. Professor Sheryl Sunia has extensive knowledge regarding this topic from her career in the Honolulu Police Department. Course will be offered on Mondays.

PSY 3235 Cross-Cultural Psychology
This course will fulfill your cross-cultural requirement. Students have enjoyed taking this course with Dr. Keith Pedro. For those interested in Forensic Psychology, he may be able to give you some insight into the career field as he is a Licensed Clinical and Forensic Psychologist.
The following courses will also be offered online:
COM 3420 Business Communication with Professor Pat Hurley
JADM 2050 Basic Criminology with Professor Sheryl Sunia
