Criminology investigates how crime can be minimised or prevented by harnessing the insight of a number of disciplines, such as psychology and history. It also examines why some behaviours are defined as criminal and why certain people may become criminals.
Criminologists’ studies are used to help law enforcers apprehend criminals more efficiently and help discover their motives to reduce the likelihood of similar crimes occurring. Deakin has one of the few dedicated criminology courses in Australia, allowing us to offer a wide variety of criminology topics. This degree provides a solid educational foundation in the principles of criminological thought and research enabling graduates to choose between seeking employment in related industries or seeking to undertake further study. Deakin’s criminology program involves broad fields of study with students covering a considerable breadth and depth of crime and criminal justice issues, as well as specialisation in areas such as victimology, media, terrorism, crime prevention, security and surveillance.
Deakin College is a direct pathway to Deakin University, and provides an excellent avenue for students who do not yet meet the admission requirements for Deakin University programs.
Deakin College and Deakin University work closely to support students and develop high-quality programs. Deakin College offers diplomas in the areas of Business; Commerce; Construction Management; Design; Engineering; Film, Television and Animation; Health Sciences; Information Technology; and Science, as well as a Foundation Studies Program (equal to Australian Year 12).
Diplomas at Deakin College are equivalent to the first year of a Deakin University undergraduate degree, and may provide entry into the second year of a relevant Deakin University bachelor degree.
