商品簡介
The purpose of A Guide to Study Skills and Careers in Criminal Justice and Public Security is to provide a how-to guide for student success in the study of criminal justice, and in the pursuit of a related degree. Authors Frank Schmalleger and Catherine D. Marcum introduce the field of criminal justice and its many components, and explain the employment opportunities available to CJ graduates, so that students can better understand the discipline they have entered. A Guide to Study Skills and Careers in Criminal Justice and Public Security will also provide instruction relevant to the points identified earlier, meaning that it will teach students how to effectively approach the study of criminal justice; communicate successfully with professors, peers, and potential employers; choose classes that will assist with career goals; make smart life choices while pursuing a college degree; develop good study skills; manage available time effectively; employ quality note-taking; think creatively (i.e., develop critical thinking skills); and write purposefully and effectively in the discipline. Additionally, as their academic careers advance, they will be provided insights into how to prepare for future careers in the field.
