Usually MA's don't specialize, except in clinical psychology. If you're interested in forensic work, you'll need to do a PhD.
I just finished my MSc Forensic Psych. It is highly dependent on where you're located. I completed mine in the UK and have to complete another 2 years of training to be registered as a forensic psych. You don't have to go this route and can rather go into various civil service jobs such as safeguarding officer, key worker for ex-convicts, victim support. You can also apply to prison jobs such as interventions specialist, facilitator, group coordinator etc. This field is incredibly competitive though so you'll need to volunteer and get distinctions to stand out.
