Criminal Justice / Law Enforcement Administration:
The degree will not get you the job. You should go if you are interested in the law, but remember that you also will want real world experience. |

Forensic Science and Technology:
This major was a perfect fit for my inquisitive, detail-oriented personality. If I were to rewind time and choose a major again, I would choose the same major. One thing I would do differently is to choose a specific area of interest to focus on (arson investigation, DNA profiling, etc.). It is very hard to find internships (especially paid internships) in this field making it hard to get on the job training. For this reason extra initiative and/or grad school are very beneficial when looking at the job market. This major includes courses from the criminal justice field, the chemistry and biology fields and archaeology. For this reason, as a student you become well rounded and have knowledge in multiple areas giving you more choice in jobs. Overall I would recommend this major to anyone who always asks questions and can look at a situation objectively. |

Corrections and Criminal Justice, Other:
Make sure you are determined on entering law enforcement, public administration, or Law school because there will be some limitations with the major entering other fields. Also be careful because with the economy going on right now a lot of public sector jobs have had a hiring freeze so jobs would be limited but over all it's a interesting and fun major to learn about because it is a mix of sociology, political sciences, public administration, psychology, and anthropology. |
