I know that a lot of investigators are or were police and worked to rank up to that position. I want to go into his field without joining the police. As for majors, I know criminal justice and law are good starts but what about psychology? Other than this career, I would love to go into something do do with psychology and sociology and work to understand and help people. Would this help a career in becoming an investigator?
