Careers

As law enforcement agencies increasingly rely on technology and data analysis expertise, demand for personnel equipped with these skills rises.

FSU College of Criminology and Criminal Justice graduate, John Carbone knew what he wanted to do at an early age. “I remember having a mock trial in my eighth-grade Government class. They walked us through the entire process, and I was fascinated. I knew I wanted to play a part in that process, and ultimately that interest led to my career in law enforcement.”

Interested students attended the Criminology Career Panel on Friday, March 24, at the Claude Pepper Center's Broad Auditorium. The event, hosted by the College of Criminology and Criminal Justice, was moderated by the College's Internship Director, Jessica Webber, and featured five panelists: Christina Ash, Chief Probation Officer - Circuit 2 Florida Department of Juvenile Justice Kevin Goehrig, Victims Services Supervisor - Florida Commission on Offender Review
