Policing and Criminal Investigation (with a Foundation Year) Bachelor of Science (with Honours) - BSc (Hons)

Whether solving crimes, searching for missing people or giving evidence in court, so much depends on the professional skills of an investigator.

Our BSc (Hons) Policing and Criminal Investigation degree will equip you with a high level of investigative expertise and policing knowledge. This will prepare you for a career with the Police, Armed Forces, HMRC, Post Office Investigation, insurance investigators and private organisations, as well as other areas.

The Foundation Year option is available for those who may not have the academic profile for direct entry onto the 3-year degree. It will prepare you for the Policing and Criminal Investigation degree by enhancing your skills with Theories of Criminality, Introduction to Principles of Law and Crime in Context.

The Foundation year is taught with the City of Stoke on Trent Sixth Form College, so you will be on the University of Staffordshire Stoke on Trent campus and the college's campus for the first year.
