<p>Can anyone please tell me a little more about UMD Criminology program. I know it is number 1 for its field, but what are the opportunities for job placement and advancement. Since Maryland campus is so close to DC are there a lot of internships available with NSA, FBI, DEA, etc.? any information would be great. Thanks.</p>
<h1>1 in its field is the graduate program, by the way. not to say the undergrad program isn't excellent also, but that's a common misunderstanding.</h1>
<p>criminology is a popular major and regarded as one of the easiest on campus due to its relatively small number of required classes. a lot of crim majors double-major in something else. internships in any major are plentiful because UMD is so close to DC...it's a lot harder to get interships with the organizations you mentioned because of security issues.</p>
<p>i'm not a crim major so i don't know any specifics, but i do have some friends who are so feel free to contact me (my email address should be in my profile)</p>
