| 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. | Criminologie is a four-year degree in which you study crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system — how crimes happen, why people commit them, and how society responds. Unlike a law degree, it focuses on the social science side of criminal justice rather than training you to be a lawyer. It suits people interested in understanding crime from psychological, sociological, and policy angles, whether they're considering careers in policing, corrections, victim services, or criminal justice research. | This program lets you earn two degrees at once: a Bachelor of Arts in Criminal Justice and a Bachelor of Education that qualifies you to teach high school. You study criminology, law, and education theory together rather than sequentially, finishing both degrees faster than if you did them separately. It suits people who want to teach secondary students and have a strong interest in law, crime, or justice topics. |
