The Public Service and Safety Department offers challenging, yet rewarding, programs in criminal justice, crime scene technology, emergency medical services, fire protection, Emergency Management and Homeland Security as well as law enforcement. The educational options include certificate programs that can be completed in one or two semesters, two-year associate of applied science degrees that qualify graduates for entry-level positions and a fully transferable associate of science degree.
Lamar Institute of Technology also requires students to register for the College Success Skills Course (DORI 0200 ) in their first semester. The course is designed to provide students with a thorough orientation to the campus, postsecondary education, and the classroom skills necessary for success. Students that transfer fifteen semester credit hours (15 SCH) from an accredited postsecondary institution with a GPA of 2.0 may be exempt from the College Success Skills Course.
