You’ll get the chance to study under experienced professionals, who have walked the path you’re plotting, and all while using our state-of-the-art facilities. At Staffordshire University we have a dedicated Crime Scene House for you to practise real-life situations and investigations, and mock courtrooms for a chance to experience a taste of the justice system.There’ll also be opportunities to listen to active professionals in guest lectures and seminars, and the chance to get out of the classroom and experience the world of law enforcement on organised trips.

Careers
Successful completion of the BSc (Hons) Professional Policing degree will provide one of the recognised routes into the police service. However, successful attainment of the Award does not in itself provide any guarantee of recruitment as a trainee police constable. Each police force within England and Wales sets out its own recruitment process and selection policy and entry requirements may vary from force to force. Prospective students are therefore strongly advised to check the specific requirements of their chosen force prior to undertaking study.
