Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Countering Terrorism and Extremism
Program Overview
Unpack the complex world of terrorism, extremism, and security in a course designed for curious, critical minds. At Canterbury Christ Church University, you'll dive into headline-making cases and investigate the deeper issues most people miss - questions of identity, inequality, power, and politics that shape how societies respond to threats.
From the global shockwaves of 9/11 to today’s fast-evolving risks, this course helps you make sense of the changing landscape of terrorism. You’ll explore how governments and communities react, what influences their decisions, and what happens when policy meets real-world challenges. Topics include international relations, ethics, risk, community resilience, and policing powers, examined through a lens that’s both critical and applied.
What sets this course apart is its hands-on approach. You’ll engage in practical simulations, such as the cutting-edge Hydra Suite, take on real case studies, and develop skills that go beyond textbooks. You’ll work alongside experts, including current and former professionals in counterterrorism and extremism, who bring real-world insight directly into the classroom.
Built on CCCU’s strong foundation in policing and security education, this degree encourages you to question everything, debate ideas in a collaborative space, challenge the status quo, and connect with students and staff from a range of backgrounds including sociology, criminology, law, forensic investigation, and politics.
Whether you're interested in a future in policing, intelligence, research, security, media, or specialist counterterrorism units, this course gives you the tools, knowledge, and confidence to make a real impact.
We know employers are looking for dynamic, open-minded graduates who can adapt, innovate, and collaborate. So we have designed a new way of teaching and learning to ensure that you are work-ready for when you graduate.
