Major/Minor Confusion: in dire need of assistance

<p>Currently I am wishing to pursue Forensic Science as my professional field after attending college. The areas of interest that I hold in this field include: Forensic Computer Examination/Investigation, Crime Lab Technician, Forensic Accounting.</p>

<p>My requirements for Digital Forensics are being reached through independent study, professional courses, and certification. That leaves the other two options in need of educational requirement fulfillment.</p>

<p>To be involved in forensics, Criminal Justice is a required course of study. In order to work in a Crime Lab, I need to major in a science, which I cannot decide if it should be Biology, Biochemistry, or Medical Technology. Last but not least, Finance will be what leads me into Forensic Accounting.</p>

<p>So, there is my list: Criminal Justice, Finance, and an undetermined Life-Science. I feel I should double-major in possibly finance, along with some sort of biology, and leave criminal justice as a minor; I would appreciate any input on this.</p>

<p>Although, I would also like the flexibility of changing my career path, without switching up my major(s) or minor(s), if I decide, after nearing the completion of my course-work, to pursue medical or law school -- OR BOTH. </p>

<p>In order to be a pathologist (Medical Examiner) or toxicologist, I need the ability to attend medical school. Or I might decide later that I want to follow a path of Medicolegal, which would be a combination of both law and medicine. I need this flexibility, but do not know how I should set-up my declarations.</p>

<p>This is in the works of being decided before I begin my college career, as I want to have a straight-path to follow so no time is wasted. I am already 25 and need to pull my life together. Anyone with advice concerning anything stated here is welcome and much appreciated to respond.</p>

<p>Yes, I know that a Medical Examiner falls under the category of Medicolegal, but I may also like the ability to pursue other subsets if I wish, such as advisory or legal and financial counsel for medical professionals and hospitals.</p>

<p>I guess it comes down to knowing that I will choose to change my career a few times in my life and need to make sure I have options in the arena without having to reattend school insearch of filling in gaps in my education.</p>
