Criminology Major..?

Applying to College
1

<p>I plan on attending Arizona State University. I started looking into criminology because this school was ranked #5 in the nation for this program. I started getting really interested by the course descriptions that i read(crimes, law forces, etc.)</p>

<p>Is this major worth it? Is it hard to complete the course? Is it difficult to find a job in this field? Is the salary low?</p>

<p>Also, i plan on getting a masters and then going back to my home state of california, or another metropolitan area. Would this increase the salary and job oppurtunities?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
