About

Make a career out of crime

Criminology is the study of crime and deviance – seeking to understand the causes of crime, the extent and consequences of crime, as well as methods of crime prevention.

Our Bachelor of Criminology prepares you to think critically about crime and the criminal justice sector, as you:

examine criminal and anti-social behaviour
debate the causes and consequences of crime
investigate policing and crime prevention techniques
question justice and corrections systems
learn how to conduct research on emerging threats, such as cybercrime, organised crime, and terrorism.
