What can you do with a degree in Criminal Justice?
Answers:
Nothing much, to tell you the truth. Or I should say nothing specific.
What you should look into is: going back to college and getting an Accounting/Poli. Sci. degree to go along with your CJ, which will open you up to a plethora of opportunities in both the public and private sectors.
You can apply to Law School.
Become a police officer.
Join the Military.
Or start out in an entry level job:
Interning or entry levels in Security Administration might be an option.
If your unwilling to do any of these, just send your application out to every entry level job you find. Be it Chemist technician or Political hack :D
Anyway, my 2 cents.
Good luck to you.
PS: The feds look for that Accounting degree more than the CJ, that's why I suggested it.
join the FBI?
bring criminals to justice!
degrees are obtained either to make it a profession or to enrich one's knowledge. The study of law is like a ocean. Degree is just a stepping stone to professional avenues or it may also be called a entrants to world of professions. In degree courses, it contains generalised courses on the legal subjects. You are acquianted with lots of subjects like jurisprudence, family law, law of arbitration etc. It gives generalised idea on each subjects. but once you go further you have the option to study in a particular subject or what it may be called as specialisation. The degree of Criminal Justice is one of them. As the name suggests, its a specialised subject on criminal justice.
With this degree, one may register in the bar council of country of its origin and starts practising legal profession under the guidance of a senior lawyer. After gaining experience, one may start its own advocacy independently.
either one may take up cases of all nature or its you are a specialists in criminal Justice, you may take up cases relating to the subject. you will be known as a criminal lawyer which these days are very demanding.
