Do you want a career in justice? A Justice Studies Diploma opens doors to many opportunities.
The two-year Justice Studies Diploma program equips students with the skills, knowledge, and values sought by employers across a variety of justice-related careers emphasizing law, criminology, ethics, and community engagement through practical, inclusive learning. The program also prioritizes wellness, diversity, and trauma-informed care to prepare graduates to support individuals and communities with empathy and cultural awareness.
Note: Future career and volunteer opportunities within justice will be negatively impacted for individuals who have any criminal convictions for which they have not yet received pardon or record suspension, or, have any criminal charges that remain pending or awaiting disposition from the courts. It is unlikely that Justice Studies graduates who have a criminal history will have any advantage when competing for employment. Applicants with further questions are advised to contact the Justice Studies program chair.
During the program, students will be visiting various facilities (such as correctional facilities). It is important to note that student attendance and participation during these visits are considered when determining overall grades. Some of these agencies and organizations will deny access to anyone who has either been criminally charged or has a criminal record.
