Wonders you couldn't imagine! ;)




Seriously, it's a class like any other subject, so you can expect an instructor to give instruction to students, specifically about the criminal justice system (i.e. law enforcement, corrections, courts, etc.). Nothing magical about it. If you're interested in learning more, sign up for an Intro to Criminal Justice course and see what it entails.

I originally wanted to get a CJ degree, but decided against it and decided to take Nursing courses - Medical training/experience is always looked at as a good thing in Policing as it's an extra skillset they can use, and if worst comes to worst and I could absolutely never become a cop anywhere in a thousand years, I have something good to fall back on.
