If you want a life of excitement, perhaps you should consider a career
in criminal justice. Most people are familiar with uniformed city and state police
officers, but there are many other career opportunities including private detectives
and investigators, probation officers, corrections officers, parole officers, even
fish and game wardens.
Many entry-level applicants for police jobs have often completed some
formal postsecondary education at accredited career schools. A significant number
are college graduates. Criminal justice degrees, both bachelors and masters, are
offered through many online and on-campus schools throughout the country.
What are your prospects? The U.S. government* predicts steady job growth
for many law enforcement careers through the next decade. Career prospects may vary
according to the exact profession. For example, opportunities in local police departments
are predicted to be excellent for individuals who meet physical, personal, and
psychological qualifications. Opportunities are also expected to be excellent for
qualified computer forensic investigators.
