Program Overview

The Bachelor of Criminal and Community Justice degree is designed for current employees within Corrective Services, as well as students who wish to pursue a career in corrections, probation or parole. The degree provides a theoretical framework for those who work with offenders and on issues of rehabilitation, through-care, and resettlement. The program also provides graduates with the knowledge and skills to develop and evaluate practice with a view to enhancing working with offenders. The Bachelor of Criminal and Community Justice can be described as an 'applied degree pathway' insofar as the teaching within the program will link theory to practice. It is important to note that this degree does not guarantee direct employment into Corrections Services. The Bachelor of Laws provides students with a broad progressive legal education with a strong practical orientation to the law. Students develop skills in problem-solving, critical thinking, research, communication, collaboration, self-management, and ethical and professional awareness and judgement. Students will also develop skills in legal advocacy, negotiation, and legal technology and extend their professional and learning experiences through work integrated learning, clinical placement and international exchange engagements. The criminal and community justice and laws double degree structure allows concurrent study in the two degrees in the first three years, with the last two years dedicated to completing the Law component. The Law component provides you with professional legal skills, including the ability to analyse legal material, understand fundamental legal principles, understand the relationship between law and society, and gain general analytical skills for critical thinking and problem-solving. Our extensive range of elective subjects allows you to further develop your skills in advocacy, mediation, legal drafting and legal research. Your skills will be developed using our extensive law library and moot courts located on our Campbelltown and Parramatta campuses.
