Is it possible to go into the Army Reserve as an Officer and get a job with a Federal Agency at the same time?

I'm about to contract with ROTC very very soon (in a matter of days) and my major is Criminology. I was greatly considering a Full Active Duty as Military Police, then applying for the FBI when my contract with the Army comes to a close. However, I can't seem to decide which contract I want with ROTC: Full Active or Reserve. My real question is: is it possible to go Army Reserves and get a job with a Federal Agency, such as the FBI even though I am committed to the Reserves? If not, what other good careers are there for me with a Criminology Degree while being in the Army Reserves as an Officer? Would my chances be lower of getting into a Federal Agency (such as the FBI) if I am in the Army Reserves as a Lieutenant and "fresh" out of college than doing 5 years in Active Duty as an MP and then applying?

Of course. You have to have a job, Since you will not make enough in the reserves to live on. We have even had Represenatatives that were in the reserves.
