Bachelor of Arts (Honours) in Criminology (Co-op)

Program Overview

Gain critical and interdisciplinary understanding of criminalization and punishment, in a program that places critical focus on systemic oppression including the historical and contemporary realities of Indigenous peoples’, over-criminalization.

Justice served is about so much more than crime and punishment. In Trent’s new Criminology degree, you will gain a foundational understanding of the influence of social inequality as a cause of crime. Learning alongside faculty experts in Sociology, Law, Gender & Social Justice and Indigenous Studies, as well as the new Canada Research Chair in Community-Partnered Social Justice, you will apply your skills and knowledge to better understand the systems at play for both criminals and victims. This program is offered fully online or as a hybrid program with both online and on-campus, in-class learning. Students also have the potential to perform independent research on homelessness, the criminalization of women, as well as gain critical understanding of the realities of Indigenous peoples’ and the criminal justice system.

Resume Boosters:

  • Explore your career interests, and graduate with 12 months of work experience (and income) through the new four-year competitive co-op stream, giving you the edge for future career success
  • Work in partnership with community agencies to solve real-world problems, such as related to policing, corrections, the legal system, and victim advocacy.
  • Practice analyzing real crime data to answer pressing criminology-related questions in society today
  • Form a dynamic and critical understanding of crime as a social justice issue with practical implications for research and policy
  • Gain a solid foundation in legal research methodology and theoretical application that will prepare you for success in a variety of workplace settings
