Justice, Bachelor

In the first year you will study core units to explore a range of subjects that will help you make an informed decision about what to specialise in. Build a solid foundation and learn about the criminal justice system, forensic psychology, deviance and social justice, and justice research methods.   You will then begin to specialise in your chosen major with the ability to select from a wide range of justice optional units such as Crimes of Violence, Sex and Crimes, Forensic Criminology, Border Security, Preventing Gendered Violence, Drugs and Crime, Organised Crime, Environmental Justice and Climate Change and many more.  Later in your degree you have the opportunity to take on a work placement, embark on an international study tour, or embed yourself in an Indigenous justice-focused organisation.  In the course you can expect lively but respectful and interesting discussions with other students who are enthusiastic about social justice issues. You’ll foster close connections and be mentored by experts and industry leaders that are committed to help shape your career in the direction of your passion.   

Flexible delivery

The Bachelor of Justice is offered on campus and externally, all the lectures are recorded and study materials available online so you can access resources at any time and fit study into your lifestyle.
