Our Bachelor of Criminology and Justice covers a broad range of topics, such as criminology, criminal psychology, criminal law and procedure, law enforcement, corrections and justice related issues. In this course you’ll receive a comprehensive, theoretical education in each of these areas – from learning why people commit crimes to understanding the importance of ethics and legal processes.

All courses delivered by NCPS that lead to a higher education award issued by NCPS are recognised in the Australian Qualifications Framework (AQF). AQF qualifications are recognised all around Australia and by other countries. Further information about AQF qualifications is available at www.aqf.edu.au. Teaching at NCPS focuses on giving students the skills and knowledge to understand people and the way they work. To do this we use interactive teaching which involves you working with other students, teachers and industry professionals.

Students can study part-time or full-time, on-campus or online, or in a combination of both modes. As an international student studying in Australia on a student visa, you are able to undertake a maximum of 25% of your total course online and must be enrolled full-time in at least one on-campus unit in each standard study trimester.
