CAN I MAJOR IN MURDEROLOGY?

Ever since the BACK TO SCHOOL FAQs post, I have been receiving a steady stream of inquiries from bright, driven college students about majoring in Murderology, especially since so many are bored with such things as Pre-Med, Astrophysics, and Art Appreciation.  Since their school counselors couldn’t (or wouldn’t) answer it, I will respond.

Unfortunately, at this time, there are no accredited colleges or universities that offer Murderology as a major or a minor. However, there are two (which would not permit us to mention their names—hint: there are state universities in the states you would least expect to offer such courses) that do offer Murderology as a Concentration. Oh yeah, and they never publicly identify the Concentration—the courses are hidden among the course listings for P. E. (I think they call it Kinesiology or Sports Medicine now or some bullshit semantic deception like that). We at The Perfect Murder are actively working to get Murderology integrated into the undergraduate and graduate curriculum, but as yet, we have not succeeded.

NOTE: There are a number of online “universities” that offer Murderology degrees, but these schools are not accredited and your degree would be worthless when you finally set out on your new career.
