This advanced policing subject seeks to address a series of contemporary, critical and emerging issues in policing. Various aspects of policing, both in Australia and internationally, along with the broader socio-political context in which policing operates, will be considered. The subject further seeks to extend upper level student knowledge of policing to contemporary, critical and emerging domestic and international issues relevant to professional practice, focussing on the most cutting edge innovations in the field. Students will apply theoretical and practical approaches to considering issues such as the use of force, mental health in the policing context and the role of forensic science in policing practice. This subject builds on the learning experiences offered in first year in which critical reflection on the role, function, styles and techniques of policing is enhanced.
