| What it is | This is a four-year degree in criminology, the study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system. You'll examine how crime happens, why people commit it, and how society responds through law and policing. The co-op option lets you alternate between semesters of coursework and paid work placements in criminal justice settings, giving you real experience alongside your studies. This program suits students interested in understanding crime and justice systems from a social science perspective rather than training directly to become police officers or lawyers. | You study law alongside criminology — the study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system — in a combined program rather than pursuing law alone. This integrated approach lets you understand both the legal framework and the social and psychological dimensions of crime before specializing. It suits students interested in criminal law, policy, or roles where understanding crime's causes matters as much as knowing the law. | This program lets you earn both a law degree and a business degree by studying at Trent University in Ontario and Swansea University in Wales. You'll take courses in business management, finance, and law together rather than as separate programs, so you graduate with credentials in both fields. It suits students who want to understand how law and business intersect — useful for corporate law, business regulation, or running a company within legal boundaries. |
