What it is	Criminal Justice is a program where you study how the legal system, crime, and law enforcement work together. The co-op requirement means you alternate between semesters of classroom learning and paid work terms in places like police services, courts, or community justice agencies, giving you real workplace experience alongside your studies. It suits people interested in understanding crime and the justice system who want hands-on experience before deciding on a specific career path in law, policing, or related fields.	You study the causes of crime, how people commit it, and how society responds through the justice system. This is a social science program rather than police or law training, and it combines criminology with sociology to help you understand crime from multiple angles. It suits people curious about why crime happens and how to address it, rather than those set on becoming lawyers or police officers.	This program examines how gender and sex shape society, history, culture, and power across different fields like sociology, social work, and other disciplines. Unlike a straight sociology degree, it centres gender and feminist perspectives as the main lens for understanding social issues. It suits students interested in understanding inequality and social change, especially those drawn to activism, policy work, or community-based careers.
