Does it matter what degree I get before pursuing a Masters in Security Studies?

[soliloquy]

As you know, I have a masters in security studies. My bachelor's degree was in social science. It was almost entirely made up of criminal justice, sociology, and psychology credits. If ECU doesn't ask for a specific degree, then you don't need a specific degree. International Security and Homeland Security are easy subjects to understand without a background.

Two questions.

What are you doing with that degree?

Also, were their any additional courses you had to take (poli sci courses) or bridge courses you had to take before getting to the meat of your program. I notice that Angelo has a Security Studies and Criminal Justice Department. ECU's degree seems to be overseen by the Political Science Dept. So I'm wondering if they would prefer that I have more Poli Sci courses incorporated into my degree.
