Toxicology is an area where chromatography is used. Separating and identifying different drugs of abuse.
In sports medicine, any illegal drugs will be picked up using chromatographic techniques. (eg Gas chromatography)
Electrophoresis, a chromatographic technique, was used by Linus Pauling to separate and study haemoglobin S, which causes sickling in red cells of afflicted individuals.
Just a couple of hundreds of techniques and methods

Computer Science is more where the money is. Law enforcement (like a police officer, etc.) is something you don't even have to go to college for really. Take an intro to both, but you will make a lot more money in computer science.

Chromatography separates a substance into its component parts, which is very useful, as substances are often unique in their composition. Chromatography can identify a substance and show how it differs from others that may look alike on the surface. For instance, if you perform chromatography on black ink from different pens, you can determine which brand of ink matches an unknown sample. There are a wide variety of possible uses for chromatography in any area in which you have to identify an unknown substance.

I have used TLC (thin layer chromatography) to determine if my organic chemistry reaction was complete. I have tested synthesized products for purity using HPLC (high pressure liquid chromatography) and GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry).
