Bachillerato en Artes Aplicadas en Justicia

The Bachelor of Applied Arts in Justice Studies takes your career in the justice system full circle. The first two years of this four-year degree program are completed by taking either the Correctional Studies, Criminal Justice – Policing, or Child and Youth Care diploma or through an accepted transfer program.

Building on the fundamentals of the justice field, the program hones your critical thinking and research skills with a curriculum that meets or surpasses entry-level requirements for management and supervisory positions in municipal, provincial and federal jurisdictions.

After completing your diploma, you’ll take an additional two years to earn your Bachelor of Applied Arts in Justice Studies. In year three, your focus will be on current and emerging issues of injustice. And for your final year, you’ll gain valuable first-hand experience of the career opportunities that await during a directed field study at a justice agency of your choice. When you’re finished, you’ll be more than prepared to make a difference in your justice career – you will be the difference.

Designed for individuals at any stage in their justice careers, all courses can be taken online or on-campus, part-time or full-time, to fit your busy schedule. And you can choose to complete your directed field study at your current justice organization, or we can help you find a suitable placement. Making the most out of your challenging yet rewarding career has never been so convenient.
