Hi, my name is Jack and I study Criminology
and Criminal Justice.
I've always had a passion in crime, specifically
police related. I've always appreciated the
work that they had done and I just wanted
more of an insight into their daily routines,
but also a bigger insight into crime in particular
really as to why it happenens rather than just judging.
The support has been great, although they're
always there to help you, always encouraging
you to email if you need any help when you're
not in university and yeah it's great, you don't feel
like you can't speak to them.
The course has given me a bigger insight into
the career that I wanted to go for. I've always
wanted to do what I wanted to do but this
course has provided me with the foundations
and the knowledge to go for it. It's given
me the confidence to do it. I'd love to join
the police, so I'm looking into that at the
moment, applying and also teaching that's
an interest of mine as well. Focus on third year
and then yeah see what happens.
I'd say go for it, it gives you an insight,
a far bigger insight than I would have thought
into crime in general. You cover everything
from psychology to courts and laws, you touch
on terrorism, all of the kind of cases like
the OJ Simpson case and stuff like that. So
if you're interested in that sort of thing,
yeah just go for it, just apply.
