About This Area of Study
If you embrace law and legal studies as your passion, your education will focus on preparing you for the legal profession. Many people may immediately picture a courtroom with lawyers and a judge, but the opportunities extend far beyond that arena. Additional programs focus on how to provide homeland security, police support, fire protection or the management of penal institutions.
What You Can Expect to Do
No objection from us: This area of study is a promising one for those who value upholding the law and are interested in protecting others, whether that be in a courtroom, in the federal government or even by researching the next big thing in security science and tech.
