This is the poster session
for the Criminal Justice 
degree students.
They've been working on, 
uh, thesis projects
that they started in September.
And today is, sort of,
a culmination of all the work
that they've been doing
throughout the course of the year.
[Aaron] My project is on the, uh,
perils of, uh, texting and walking.
So what me and my 
two other group members did
was we conducted two, uh,
separate methodologies.
[Katie] 
We decided to do child sex tourism
because there's a lot of ethical issues 
surrounding it.
And, you know,
we know a lot about human trafficking,
we know a lot about child abuse 
and tha- those areas,
but we don't know
about the perpetrators
who are actually 
going into another country.
[Debra Preston] The benefit
is that they get to interact with people
that are already in the working world
and in a variety of professions,
 uh, mainly 
in the criminal justice field,
and it gives us a chance 
to interact one on one.
[Joanna] 
The Criminal Justice degree program
is a four year, uh,
Bachelor of Applied Arts here at Humber.
So the students engage
in a wide variety of curriculum
having to do 
with the criminal justice system,
both in a practical 
and theoretical nature.
[Katie] This is hands on,
and I feel that I'm a hands on person.
I need to be able to use the skills 
that I'm learning right then and there.
So I feel like it's been
an incredible, incredible fit for me.
[Aaron] I've had 
a phenomenal experience at Humber.
My past four years 
have been great.
I love the, the, uh, co-op terms 
in the summer.
I got to work at the, uh, airport
with Canada Border Services Agency
for each summer.
So I got great experience there.
The professors here are amazing.
A lot of us wanna 
move into a law enforcement career,
whether it be probation, courts,
or even policing,
and this really prepares you 
to move into that career.
[Debra] I really think that
they are leaders of the future
and if there's a way
that I can help them
then, um, I would love to.
[Katie] I love law,
so that is why I chose Criminal Justice,
because I wanna make a difference.
