The University of North Texas at Dallas proposes the development of a Justice-Applied Artificial Intelligence minor embedded within its Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. This 15–18 credit hour interdisciplinary minor is designed to equip future justice professionals with essential AI literacy while examining the ethical, legal, and operational implications of artificial intelligence in policing, courts, corrections, and policy analysis. The presentation will outline curriculum design, workforce relevance, and governance considerations, highlighting how applied AI education can responsibly enhance decision-making, transparency, and accountability across the criminal justice system.
