Hmm, your best bet finding jobs that would be applicable would be to go to any major job search site, like hotjobs.com or monster.com, and enter "criminal justice" as a search parameter, and see what jobs come up, and what degree they require. For coursework, you can look online at the college website to see the listing or get a contact number for the departmental advisor

For example, I just did a quick search and came up with this:

http://www.sheridan.edu/programs/criminaljustice.asp
At Sheridan College the Associate of Applied Science degree in Criminal Justice allows students to choose from four areas of concentration: Law Enforcement; Corrections (adult and juvenile); Victim Advocacy (adult and child); and Private Security. The Corrections emphasis is designed to serve in-service correctional and detention officers or pre-service students who want to pursue a career in corrections or work with at risk youth. It is also designed for those who wish to transfer to a four-year institution to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice or another Behavioral Science profession. In depth background investigations, polygraph, and psychological examinations, and aptitude testing is required in most criminal justice professions. Check with the Criminal Justice department for details on criminal justice employment restrictions.
