Honours Bachelor Of Applied Science In Justice�Studies And Diploma In Community and Justice Services Or Police Foundations

Program Overview

Throughout your four years, you will be exposed to the justice system: from the rules we follow, to dealing with people and communities to the hands-on processing of crime scenes and making arrests. Build key skills required in any area of justice such as critical thinking, research methods and how to write effectively.

In your first year, you will build a foundation in justice and related fields. In year two, you begin to take courses that touch on various services and how they are delivered, such as counselling, conflict resolution, forensics and policing.

In your second year, you decide which diploma to pursue, focusing in on one of these two areas:

  • Community and Justice Services: Focuses on social issues and explores the development of community programs, ways to work with both victims and offenders, and methods of crime prevention.
  • Police Foundations: Prepares you for a career in the various levels of law enforcement in the Canadian justice system.


What credentials will I graduate with?
Earn BOTH an Honours Bachelor of Applied Science in Justice Studies AND a Diploma in either Police Foundations or in Community and Justice Services.

Given the new requirements for specialization and career advancement, working in this field means more than having the right skills – it means having the right credentials.  A university degree and a diploma means you’ll have everything you need should you want to specialize now or get promoted later. 

You gain both theoretical knowledge and applied skills – that’s why you graduate with two credentials.  Both an honours degree from the University of Guelph, and a diploma from Humber College Institute of Technology & Advanced Learning – two of Canada’s leading postsecondary institutions. All in four years of full-time study.

Our curriculum is what makes the difference.  It innovatively combines theoretical and applied learning so that you are better prepared for whatever you may choose to do – whether that means beginning a career or pursuing graduate studies.
