Criminal Justice Degree

Bonnie Said:

What jobs can I get with a criminal justice degree besides being a Police Officer?

We Answered:

Having a cj degree does not help you become and officer.
having a bachelors or even your AA with a good GPA does.
If you want something like probation go into soc.
There are lots of civilian jobs in government LE for good computer forensic people.
There are even more n private industry.You gotta be good and you have to get some internship/practical type experience to land a good job.

Freddie Said:

Is it worth getting a criminal justice degree if I just want to do administrative work?

We Answered:

Absolutely. I would definately look into getting a degree like that. You need to have some post high-school education before most employers will give you a chance.

Joseph Said:

What can i do with a Criminal Justice degree in the military?

We Answered:

Don't f*cking listen to redleg. Go to school for WHAT YOU WANT, don't go into a field that you're not interested just for the money because you're not going to enjoy it. Go to school and get your criminal justice degree and then join the military and become a JAG officer. Don't never let nobody influence your career plan and what you plan to do with your education

Terry Said:

Would a criminal justice degree be a good springboard to becoming an Army Officer?

We Answered:

I totally agree with Ted M.

There is no justice whatsoever in any military service albeit, Army, Airforce, Navy and/or associated services and their Reserves.

All to often the History of Military Justice dispensed to its ranker's is a complete and total cover up to protect its higher command officers and families, politicians, government institution, big business corps and umpteen other institutions. Notwithstanding the abuse, bullying, petty discrimination officers and NCO's etc impose on their men/women and ruin their advancement/careers, and are duly allowed to walk away unchallenged!

It a wasted degree in the Military + It wouldn't take U too long to realize that even remotely attempting to dispense justice would bring U (on the fast track) into direct conflict with all the above. And they'd use every despicable means to discredit you and force your dishonourable discharge. Thus also branding U for life!

Dorothy Said:

What are my job options if i have a criminal justice degree?

We Answered:

In my experience many people who earn degrees in Criminal Justice never go on to work in a law enforcement or government related job. This is because jobs in the public sector are often hard to get and because numerous jobs in the private sector can be obtained with any 4-year degree. So, trust me, you are not limited to law enforcement and government with a Criminal Justice Degree. In fact a CJ degree is not usually necessary to get a job in law enforcement; most government positions only require you have a degree (your major usually does not matter). At least half the Federal agents I have known in my career majored in something other than Criminology. With regard to DCF you should check your state's specific requirement. In my state those positions usually require a Master's degree in something like Social Work. Good luck.
