Open up some great career opportunities by combining your chosen criminal justice major with business administration studies.

What is a criminal justice management degree?

Unlike a sports management degree, this qualification is the savvy choice when you envisage a future in probation, corrections facilities, or court administration. You’ll enjoy excellent job security along with the rewards of serving your fellow citizens.

A degree in criminal justice management puts you on the fast track to the following exciting careers:

Probation or parole officer

If you’re looking for a challenging but highly rewarding career, try becoming a probation or parole officer. You’ll help offenders get into training, rehabilitation, and counseling.

As a correctional treatment specialist working within the system, you may have to monitor inmates in prison. You’ll also need to prepare reports for organizations, including parole boards or the correctional facility, outlining the progress prisoners have made towards rehabilitation.

Corrections administrator

As a member of the administrative team in a prison facility, you’ll be responsible for officers’ activities on duty. You’ll ensure the smooth running of the facility with responsibilities, including report writing and budgets.

If you want to move into a management position, a prison warden can run a correctional facility. This position requires a combination of education and experience.

Court administrator

Masters degree courses are typically required for a career in court administration. Individual states may also require you to hold a specialized certificate, such as becoming a Fellow of the Institute for Court Management.

A court administrator’s duties include processing paperwork required for the court system to work with newly released individuals.
