    About

    The Bachelor of Criminal Justice and Criminology is the only degree of its kind in Victoria. It examines both the causes of crime (criminology) and its fallout (criminal justice).

    In this course, you'll study local and global criminality, traditional approaches and responses to crime along with emerging trends and practices in the field.

    You'll also learn about the international dimensions of criminal justice as well as the technological advances impacting the sector, including predicting the commission of crime, detecting and stopping criminal behaviour and implementing effective criminal sanctions. You'll also get professional learning experience as you complete a Capstone Project in your final year.

    This degree gives you the knowledge and skills to work in a range of sectors and industries; including policing, corrections, courts, offender rehabilitation, victim support and government policy development.
    Students who successfully complete this course will be able to:
    • describe the nature of criminal activity and evaluate the main causes of crime 
    • systematically review and undertake research to evaluate the consequences of crime on victims and the broader community
    • apply knowledge and skills to compare and analyse Australia's response to crime with that of other nations
    • effectively and persuasively communicate with legal and non-legal audiences
    • analyse information from a variety of sources to investigate and evaluate proposed solutions to crime
    • evaluate technological and other scientific approaches to reducing crime and dealing with the consequences of crime
    • function as an effective member or leader of a diverse team and critically reflect on individual performance
