Description:

Criminology involves the scientific analysis of crime, of the criminalization process and of social control. Criminology is also an applied discipline in which students learn various forms of intervention to help resolve problems and conflicts. It focuses on five broad phenomena: the nature and dynamics of behaviour that contravenes social norms; the social construction of norms and of the notion of crime; the criminalization of specific behaviours; individuals and groups in social relations; the goals and workings of the criminal justice system; and contemporary forms of intervention. The French immersion stream is available with this program.
