| What it is | You study the causes of crime, how the justice system works, and how laws are enforced and applied. This is broader than a law degree because it focuses on understanding criminal behaviour and the system that responds to it, rather than training you to become a lawyer. It suits people interested in police work, corrections, victim services, or roles in government agencies that deal with crime and justice policy. | This program combines arts courses — drawn from fields like English, history, economics, and creative writing — with business studies to prepare you for careers that value both analytical and communication skills. The co-op option lets you alternate study terms with paid work placements at real companies, giving you experience before you graduate. It suits students who want a broader education than straight business but need practical skills for the job market. |
