I have a question I am currently in a criminal justice school

my question is can you get any type of job in the field if you are taking methadone?P

Depends

On what state you're in and the laws surrounding that drug and its regulations state wise and federally. I'd say yes, just cause one of my friends is going into private investigating and it seems like the CJ majors will take just about anyone who's got a good head on their shoulders :D That and he's medicated too and he's had no problems so far.
