I'm not interested in that either.

Education and Experience: Graduation from an accredited college or university with a bachelor's degree and experience equivalent to three years of professional [whatever the job is] work.
Substitution of Education for Experience: Additional graduate coursework in [whatever the job is] or other related acceptable fields may be substituted for the required experience, on a year-for-year basis, to a maximum of one year.
Typical Federal job:
One full year of graduate level education in social sciences, business or public administration, behavioral sciences, and sociology. Course work in fields other than those specified may be accepted if it clearly provides applicants with the background of knowledge and skills necessary for successful job performance in the position to be filled. One year of full-time graduate education is considered to be the number of credit hours that the school attended has determined to represent 1 year of full- time study.
Texas must be picky!
At any rate, best wishes towards selecting something that works for you!
I've looked at, literally, thousands of state jobs over the years and have applied to many of them. If the job is related to CJ, then a CJ degree is fine. Saying that the state government does not accept CJ degrees makes absolutely no sense. There is no ban on any major. Either your degree is considered related or it isn't. You can go look at the TJJD and TDCJ job websites yourself. These are some of the jobs asking for criminal justice and other related degrees as of today.
