I would really like to do something with forensics but going to Uni on campus is really not an option for me at the moment and not for quite a few years....
I also considered law as thats what I was going to do after school originally but life got in the way
I've just finished studying criminology - it's part of a syllabus of what I must study to gain a promotion at work (i'm a police officer)....
Otherwise, as its such a specialised field I would have rathered study something a bit more mainstream to keep job opportunities open - but it is fairly interesting all the same
Ladeeda - Have you considered doing a law degree or a legal studies degree with a major in criminology? Both of these degrees have very practical applications and do look good in a resume. Although I would say from my experience, that generally it isn't worth doing a full Law degree unless you intend to become a laywer or work in the legal industry - but like I said there are also legal studies degrees you can get, which still involve studying legal mechanisms, but more from a layman perspective and criminology fits really well into this study. Also both can be studied externally - I am currently finishing my law degree as a long distance external student.
