RAASPS - Police Science

The Associate of Applied Science (A.A.S.) in Police Science is a terminal, career-centered degree program that provides a 60-credit hour course of study for people currently employed in law enforcement with a New Mexico policing agency or who are state-certified in policing by other state licensing authorities or are certified as military police.

To obtain the A.A.S. in Police Science degree, students must provide evidence of successful completion of state or federal law enforcement programs:

• a New Mexico Department of Public Safety basic or NMDPS-approved satellite police certification training academy, OR

• the United States Border Patrol Basic Training Program (USBPI), the Federal Air Marshal Basic Training Program (FAMTP), or the Land Management Basic Police Training Program (LMPT).

Completion of the training listed above equates to 30 credit hours toward the A.A.S. degree.

Additionally, students must complete a 30-hour academic component at ENMU-Roswell.

Once both parts of the program listed above (the academy and ENMU-Roswell course work) are satisfied, and upon the provision of an official training graduation transcript, students will be awarded an A.A.S. degree in Police Science from ENMU-Roswell.
