The criminal justice degree will prepare students to enter a field with many career options. Students will take courses in a wide variety of criminal justice-related topics that provide a solid foundation to jumpstart their career. Graduates have the opportunity begin their career in law enforcement (local, state, or federal) or in corrections (security, treatment, etc.). A criminal justice degree is also a solid foundation for those desiring to attend law school to become an attorney. For those already employed in the criminal justice field, a bachelor's degree will assist in career advancement and open up promotion opportunities.
Institutions offering the BS in Criminal Justice program have pre-evaluated Georgia's POST training curriculum for applicable credit for prior learning that can be used for degree completion.
Online learning has been incredibly helpful in allowing me to balance work and school. The flexibility it provides has helped me to continue my education without sacrificing employment opportunities or financial stability.
