A career-focused and multi-faceted approach to criminal behaviour, law, and the criminal justice system.
About The Program
The Forensic Psychology and Criminal Justice (FPAC) program offers students the opportunity to study criminal behaviour and criminal justice in a uniquely diverse way. In this program, students take courses from the Departments of Psychology, Child and Youth Studies, and Political Science to learn about the individual, social, cultural, and systemic factors that influence criminal and aggressive behaviour, and the institutions that make up the criminal justice system.
Through either a four-year Major or Honours degree, FPAC prepares students for a variety of interesting and engaging careers, including law, corrections, counselling, policing, criminology, policy analysis and administration, and advocacy.
Students will work with dynamic, award-winning professors dedicated to teaching and research, and FPAC offers practicum opportunities to gain real-world experience with our community partners in law enforcement, forensic research, and clinical settings.
