It was an interesting course however it did have some pointless units just to fill out the 3 years. Not too many jobs afterwards

Student review
Enjoyed the course and felt I developed as an individual and professionally. I am hoping to work in the Government sector once I gain some practical experience. I do not find my current work relevant to my degree (working as a paralegal) but I do hope to use it in conjunction with my experience in the future.

This course was great to learn about the psychology behind why people commit crimes as well as how to reduce your likelihood to become a victim. Career options in this field however are minimal.
