What it is	Criminology is the study of why people commit crimes, how the criminal justice system responds, and what drives criminal behaviour. Unlike a law degree, you won't train to become a lawyer; instead, you'll examine crime through sociology, psychology, and policy perspectives. This program suits students interested in understanding crime and justice systems rather than practising law itself.	You study how crime happens, how the criminal justice system works, and policing practices in Canada. This online program lets you learn from home while exploring both the causes of crime and the practical side of law enforcement, rather than focusing only on theory or only on police operations. It suits people interested in criminal justice careers or further study who need flexibility to learn remotely.	You study the theory and practice of running organizations and businesses. The program covers accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and management, with flexibility to focus on areas that interest you most. It includes a co-op work term, so you alternate between classroom learning and paid work experience in real organizations, which suits people who want to apply what they learn and build professional networks while studying.
