If your major was criminal justice and you graduated with a bachelor’s degree, what was your first job in the field?
If your major was criminal justice and you graduated with a bachelor’s degree, what was your first job in the field? Do you feel that the pay has been enough to support yourself? I’m feeling a bit nervous because I’ve heard from many people that it can be difficult to succeed in this field. I’m really looking for reassurance and insight into how you got started, how you made it work financially, and whether there is room for growth and advancement over time.
How do I actually get into top tier schools?
Hi! I am aiming for top tier schools. I am a current freshman, 4.0 GPA. I do student council and mock trial. This year I took one AP and advanced class, next year I will be taking 3-4 AP classes. I am interested in zoology, pediatrics, youth advocacy, law, and government. What can I be doing to get into a good university? (Are my EC’s enough? I know I don’t have music or a sport)
I currently have my honours degree in Sociology. What additional subjects I should take to pursue juvenile justice?
I currently have my honours degree in Sociology. To be a juvenile justice officer, I do understand that you need a degree in criminology and would like to know what additional subjects I should take to pursue that. I love working with the youth and trying to make a change in society, hence my decision in Sociology. I have recently however decided I definitely want to work within the police force or even prison. I came across juvenile case manager and juvenile justice officer. I'm not eager to begin another degree and would just like to know what steps I could take next. I have been searching and trying to get information but nothing straight forward.I'm based in South Africa. #sociology #criminology #juvenile-delinquency #juvenile-justice #case-management Thank you!!
