Widen your skills by combining our accredited law degree with criminology. The law degree will provide you with the professional legal skills and knowledge required by the Legal Profession Admission Board (LPAB) for admission to legal practice.

You will have the opportunity to participate in our volunteering program for law students. In partnership with  the National Pro Bono Resource Centre (NPBRC) our students (under supervision) undertake pro bono projects for organisations that have limited resources.

The Criminology degree focuses on social and cultural definitions of criminality and reactions to it. Topics include criminology as a discipline; types and cultural depictions of crime; victimisation; crime prevention strategies and debates; law enforcement and surveillance; adult and juvenile justice; institutions and practices.

Criminology units are offered at Bankstown, Penrith and Parramatta campuses and Law units are offered at both Campbelltown and Parramatta campuses. Travel between campuses will be required in order to complete your core units.

As a criminology and law graduate you can look forward to a broad range of career opportunities as a:

• Solicitor or Barrister
• Community development worker
• Casework and case management
• Policy adviser
