Criminology/Criminal Justice majors

Question

Is their a profession for a medical doctor to work with criminals. I love to watch, talk and do anything about crime. I want to go into criminal justice, but instead of going to law school, I want to go into medical school. What could I do with that major? is this a wise choice?

Answer 1

Its a very good choice, it really depends on how you use your skills, and jobs you seek.

You can work as a MD for the Prison Systems and/or Correctional Insitutions,  and as you know they are all over the United States

You can also apply that degree by working with Law Enforcement such as a Pathologist (helping solve cases with DNA, blood samples, etc, the CSI effect)

Your options are wide open,  talk with your career counselor, and maybe even do some volunteer work with the prison systems, FBI, etc.

Good Luck
