Description: | Get exposed to the justice system: from the rules we follow to dealing with people and communities to the hands-on process of crime scenes and making arrests. Understand social justice issues, diversity, inclusion and equity, mental health and first aid, and globalization. Justice is a broad field and your studies will reflect that, ensuring multiple career pathways are open to you. Upon graduation, you will earn an Honours Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies and a Diploma in Community and Justice Services or Police Foundations.
In your first year, you will build a foundation in justice and related fields. In year two, you begin to take courses that touch on various services and how they are delivered, such as counselling, conflict resolution, forensics and policing. You will choose which diploma to pursue in your second year: Community and Justice Services or Police Foundations. Years three and four move on to advanced courses that immerse you in issues such as rights and freedoms, youth and the law, and criminology. Unique to our justice program, you will take part in at least 200 hours of community service placements in two justice agencies/organizations.
