Our Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice prepares you to contribute to discourse on criminal behaviour and societal responses to it. You'll explore the complex causes and nature of crime, and its impact on communities and intervention strategies. You'll investigate why people commit crimes as well as the impact of crime on victims and society. Understand the process of investigating and prosecuting crime - and how cultural and political values shape laws and punishments. You'll study courses in criminology, law and sociology, and see how structural inequalities impact crime and criminal justice. Discover different types of punishment and innovative responses to criminal behaviour. Explore the growing influence of globalisation, cyberpolitics and digital technologies on crime. Develop research and critical thinking skills. Build the expertise to help those impacted by crime. Apply your learning in a practical or research-based internship and graduate ready for roles in community safety and crime prevention - or progress to complete a higher research degree.
