The Bachelor of Criminology and Criminal Justice majoring in Gender and Sexuality Studies will provide you with a deep understanding of how society is organised in relation to gender and sexuality, and how these identities interact within the context of criminal justice. You'll consider how gender and sexuality are linked to power, privilege and inequality, and explore contemporary issues ranging from the gender pay gap to body image. You'll build knowledge of Australian criminal law, policing, corrections and the justice system. Learning from research active academic staff, you'll develop highly transferable skills across communications, research, analysis and critical thinking. A practical or research-based internship in your final year will guide and focus your career aspirations. As a graduate, you'll be ready to make an impact in the fields of criminology, policy, advocacy and community support.
