Criminal justice degree question?

Question

i live in ny and im having trouble finding my major. i was considering criminal justice but i was just wondering what other job opportunities will i get if i acheive a degree in criminal justice besides being a police officer

Answer 1

Depends on how long you want to go to school.An associates degree will help you get on with a police force. A Bachelors degree will open you up to probation, parole, and others that require a higher level of education. You could specialize in corrections if thats what you want to do. Speak to anyone in the college they could point you in the direction of the Dean of Arts and he could tell you much more. I am currently about to begin my second to last semester in this program and even if you choose to do something else the classes are great! Good Luck and feel free to email me if I can help in any way.
