What will I learn?

Criminologists collect and analyse data to understand where, when and why crimes occur. They look for patterns – and question systems. They develop crime prevention strategies and work to improve societal safety and justice. In this eye-opening degree, you’ll learn how crime is shaped by social, psychological and economic factors – and how a career in criminology can make a difference. Build the skills to advocate for a more just society. Grow intellectually, ethically and professionally. Pursue careers in crime analysis and research, policy development, community advocacy, crime prevention and safety, corrections, victim support or youth justice. 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.
