Study security and loss prevention for business and private protection

More private businesses and residents than ever before are taking their professional and personal security into their own hands. Careers in security and loss prevention can offer public safety professionals the opportunity to transition into a less risky job while still putting their crime fighting skills and experience to good use. Other students can launch their security careers by specializing in technology, strategy, and deployment.

Security degree programs expose students to many of the same kinds of courses that law enforcement professionals take at police academies. Enrollees learn how to handle weapons, how to manage large crowds, and how to mount effective surveillance operations.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, security and loss prevention degree holders will enjoy favorable job opportunities over the coming decade. With stores, casinos, and other businesses handling larger amounts of cash and inventory, many employers invest heavily in on-site safety and security. Meanwhile, more private communities have hired security firms to supplement the work of police, who can stay focused on more critical cases.

Although the BLS estimates that many security and loss prevention professionals earn about $23,000 per year, that salary rises quickly for job candidates with security degrees. By combining their security courses with concentrations in business and personnel management, loss prevention specialists can open up their own small businesses to compete in this fast growing field.
