Criminal justice careers reddit

Lots of jobs are non specific about degree requirements, but that doesn't mean your criminal justice degree won't help you go farther, faster.
For example you can become a police officer with only an associates degree, or in some cases just a HS degree, but if you want to become a detective you pretty much have to have a BS.

CJ is a crappy degree in most cases, but it's better than no degree at all.
In all other cases, a degree in nearly anything else (STEM specifically) is going to be better than a CJ degree.
