| What it is | Criminology is the study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system that responds to it. You'll examine why people commit crimes, how laws are enforced, and the social and psychological factors behind criminal activity. This program suits people interested in understanding crime from an academic angle rather than pursuing law or direct policing careers. | This is a four-year degree combining the study of political systems and institutions with media, journalism, and how people communicate messages to audiences. Unlike studying either subject alone, you examine how politics and communication shape each other — analyzing political campaigns, news coverage, and public persuasion. It suits students interested in policy, political reporting, campaign work, or understanding how information flows in democratic societies. | This program combines the study of how people and institutions communicate with the analysis of political systems and power. You'll take courses in both media studies and politics, learning how messages shape public opinion and policy. It suits students interested in understanding the relationship between communication and government, or who want careers in political communications, journalism, or policy analysis. |
