Bachelor of Justice Studies (Policing)

What is this course about?

CSU's Bachelor of Justice Studies (Policing) course consists of vocationally relevant subjects which will enhance the knowledge and professional capacities of people intending to become officers in the NSW Police Force.

About the course

Students enrolled in the Policing course will study on the Bathurst or Port Macquarie Campus of CSU for their first two years and then transfer to the NSW Police College at Goulburn for Trimester 1 of the last year of their three-year program. This means that CSU's graduates wishing to join the NSW Police Service will be sworn in as Probationary Constables at the end of the first trimester of their third year. The final two trimesters of the course are completed by distance education while employed as a Probationary Constable.

Key points

This degree has been designed with extensive consultation with police, the justice community and academics, to ensure it is vocationally relevant and up to date with latest issues. Community service and police practice placements give students a systematic introduction to the professional environment. The policing studies completed within the degree, plus a further trimester of study undertaken on campus at Goulburn, meet academic requirements for employment in the recruit training program of the NSW Police Force.
