A criminal justice degree is among the latter. Some people with a criminal justice degree become police officers while others work for the federal government as NCIS special agents or FBI profilers. Some criminal justice graduates work with evidence from crimes, becoming crime scene investigators or crime lab analysts. Part of the 10 Ways to Use a College Degree series, 10 Ways to Use a College Degree in Criminal Justice is a guide for young people with an interest in law and a desire to serve society.

Reviews and Awards for 10 Ways to Use a College Degree in Criminal Justice

"Gr 9 Up–Each book in this series focuses on a single college major and introduces a variety of professions within that field. The text clearly explains what people in these jobs do and the settings where they may work. The writing is clear and thorough, presented in longer paragraphs that provide detailed explanations rather than quick, dynamic facts. A standout feature is the inclusion of profiles of notable figures in each profession that trace their majors and career paths. Color photographs show professionals at work, while the overall graphic design supports the text rather than serving as an attention-grabbing element. VERDICT: A practical and informative series that will guide students in exploring both college majors and future careers."
