The operational challenges for policing, justice, regulatory and security agencies across Australia, Asia and the Pacific are increasing in our networked world. Combating criminal threats to economic well-being, social equity and cohesion, environmental sustainability and national security requires a critical and holistic approach. The Graduate Certificate in Crime and Regulation applies established regulatory insights and an evidence-informed approach to examine and understand these new governance challenges. The compulsory courses provide students with a solid foundation in the concepts, processes, institutions and practices of criminology and regulation, while the elective courses allow students to develop their methodological skills and apply these concepts to a range of issues and domains related to compliance, restorative justice and governance. The program prepares students for professional careers that require an understanding of crime, justice and associated regulatory systems.
