Criminal justice is an interdisciplinary field that provides insight into the criminal justice system and the legal and social issues surrounding it. A degree in criminal justice is a good choice for individuals who are interested in making a positive impact on their communities, have strong analytical and critical thinking skills, and are passionate about justice and public safety. It can be an excellent double major, but may not provide a clear path to a single career. Job options with this degree include law enforcement, corrections, legal professions like becoming a court clerk or paralegal, social services, and private security. Worried about the quality of an online criminal justice degree? Students who complete their criminal justice degree online earn an average of $41,048 3 years after graduation -- that’s $978 more than on-campus students.
