About the course
This course explores crime, criminal behaviour and social control, examining why offences occur and how society can respond and reduce harm. You’ll study the criminal justice system end-to-end, including law-making, policing, courts and corrections, and consider differing perspectives on justice across communities. Industry exposure is built in through practicums and applied projects such as ECU’s Criminal Justice Review Project in this bachelor criminology discipline. The programme explores human behaviour, research methods, and applied psychology for community and organisational settings.
Career outcome
Graduates are prepared for roles across the criminal justice sector, with practical experience gained through workplace learning and industry-based projects. Career pathways may include work in corrections, policing-related areas, justice policy and program support, community and youth justice services, crime prevention initiatives, and roles in government or non-government agencies focused on safety and justice. Outcomes align with bachelor-level preparation for criminology and justice careers.
