Develop a deep understanding of human behaviour and the criminal justice system when you combine two highly-regarded degrees. The Bachelor of Criminology & Criminal Justice/Psychological Science at UNSW equips you with the interdisciplinary knowledge and skills to pursue a wide range of career opportunities in psychology, criminology and beyond.
Psychology delves into the scientific study of behaviour and its underlying mental and neural processes. In the Bachelor of Psychological Science, you'll explore developmental, social, cognitive, biological, physiological and abnormal psychology. You'll also develop strong research methods and data analysis skills.
The Bachelor of Criminology & Criminal Justice (BCCJ) at UNSW provides a comprehensive understanding of crime, social control and the legal system. You'll investigate current social issues like victimisation, juvenile justice, drug-related harm and community safety, while gaining applied social research and policy skills to translate knowledge into practice.
By combining Psychological Science and Criminology, you'll be prepared to make meaningful contributions across diverse sectors, from mental health and organisational psychology to roles within the criminal justice system.
