Thomas Edison State College honored to be one of 10 institutions selected to participate in the U.S. Coast Guard's Maritime Law Enforcement College Partnership Program, a program of the Coast Guard's Force Readiness Command (FORCECOM), the Maritime Law Enforcement Academy and the Coast Guard Institute.

As a partner in this new initiative, Thomas Edison State College has tailored its Bachelor of Arts degree in Criminal Justice and Bachelor of Science degree in Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness for Coast Guard personnel to maximize credit for Coast Guard training and Maritime Law Enforcement Academy courses.

These two degree programs, which can be completed entirely online, prepare Coast Guard members with the skills needed for professional growth within the Coast Guard or for a civilian career once active duty service has ended.
