Overview

Associate of Arts Degree in Criminology

Criminology is an exciting and expanding area of study! 

Concerns about public safety, crime, and social justice contribute to a strong demand for people knowledgeable in these areas. 

By studying criminology and justice at KPU, you will learn about the causes and prevention of crime and other social harms, as well as explore possible solutions to these problems.

While obtaining the benefits of study across several disciplines, students in this program concentrate on theories of crime, law, and the administration of justice in Canada. 

Students are immersed in a multidisciplinary approach to understanding crime in context, how different communities respond to crime in Canada, crime statistics, and different methods that can be used in researching crime and social control.
