Intro to Justice Studies

Careers

It is never too early to start planning your career! There are many careers available to the Justice Studies graduate. Some of these include:

  • Police Officer
  • Corrections Officer
  • Court Officer
  • Parole Agent
  • Special Agents (ATF, FBI, DEA)
  • Deputy U.S. Marshals
  • Bailiffs

Bear in mind that just as one must climb the corporate ladder to get ahead in business, the Justice Studies graduate must start on the ground floor. For example, the recent graduate cannot expect to become a homicide detective straight out of school. That being said, many justice-related occupations offer the opportunity for steady advancement. Keep in mind that national and local job markets fluctuate, so remember to stay in the know of changes in any field you have targeted as a career goal.
