Fundamentals in Forensic Science

Examine how psychologists use psychological theory and research within the criminal justice setting. Focus on psychological assessments in court, criminal behaviour and responsibility, predicting dangerousness, juries and eyewitness testimony.

Introduction to Forensic Psychology

Study the ideas and institutions that contribute to law and its production. Examine the relationship between rules, morality, justice and politics. Consider the rule of law, role of judges, human and indigenous rights, democracy and government power. 

Law, Government and Justice

Delve into the laws and processes which govern crime investigation, trials and punishment. Consider the principles of responsibility and the functions of criminal law. Examine investigations, suspects' rights, and the importance of admissible evidence.

Police, Courts and Criminal Law

Focus on the key elements of a crime event through the lens of offenders and victims of violence. Learn how serious violent offences are detected and investigated, then consider how these offences are processed in the courts, via trials and sentencing.

Policing and the Politics of Counterterrorism

Explore the theories of punishment and the intended and unintended social and psychological consequences of imprisonment. Contrast the individual experience with reference to social relations, gender, race-ethnicity, age and mental health.

Punishment, Justice and Reform

Commencing with its historical development, including the impact of the English tradition, you’ll analyse a variety of organisational issues and strategies. Understand candidate recruitment and selection practices and the role of private police.

Introduction to Policing

Examine strategies for changing criminal behaviour within the correctional system by drawing on psychological principles and research. Review programs and articulate the rehabilitation ideal in terms of ethical, theoretical and practical concerns.

Study the origins and development of the correctional system in terms of custodial and non-custodial sanctions. Along with privatisation and deaths in custody, you’ll examine special populations such as women, juveniles and Indigenous offenders. 

Introduction to Corrections

Develop skills for conducting crime analysis and diagnosing crime problems, and tactics to disrupt criminal activity. Study specific topics such as victim, place and offender oriented analyses and how these can inform tactical decisions and intervention.
