I have a Master of Science degree

Question

in Criminology and Criminal Justice. Do y'all think that will help me when I'm a prosecutor?

Answer 1

You need a law degree.  I thought criminal justice was an MA, where is the science?

Answer 2

Maybe,

you'll need a law degree first.

Answer 3

Any degree would help a potential prosecutor as long as he/she has the minimum educational qualifications to first become a lawyer.  But, a 'Master of Science' degree in 'Criminology and Criminal Justice'?  That combination just doesn't make sense.  Also, if you have a Master's in *anything* you would know what you are doing and wouldn't be asking strangers on the Internet for advice ... you would know the answer as you would have to be in your late twenties to have spent that number of years getting your education.  Also, to have a Master's in Law you would already be qualified to be a lawyer.  Hmmmmmmmm.  Your 'question' just doesn't make any sense with all those mistakes.  Are you playing some sort of childish game because you sure as heck are not a lawyer.  Care to come back with a reasonable professional argument as to why I am not correct??

Answer 4

Maybe the knowledge will, but you need a doctorate in jurisprudence (law degree) to be a prosecutor.  Sorry, but you need four more years.
