Program Overview

Policing
Examine the critical role and complexities of policing in modern society. Our program was created in consultation with law enforcement agencies across Canada. You’ll study relevant and current topics to modern-day policing, including diversity, ethics, and police psychology. Graduates prepare to pursue a career in law enforcement or related fields. 

About Laurier's Policing Program
Our combination Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Policing program is unlike any other in Canada. Combining a BA in Policing (offered online) with another BA program in Waterloo or Brantford – such as Psychology, Criminology, Health Studies or Religion and Culture – enhances the breadth and depth of your knowledge by expanding perspectives and experiences.

Extensive consultations with law enforcement agencies across Canada helped to shape the topics covered in this program. Topics include leadership, communication, diversity, ethics and building resilience. An advisory board ensures the course material stays relevant and current.

BA in Psychology
The Bachelor of Arts (BA) in Psychology program at our Waterloo campus provides you with a liberal arts education that includes broad exposure to the major sub-fields of psychology along with some training in research methodology and statistics.

The program is structured to ensure that you are exposed to the breadth of content that exists within the discipline, while still permitting sufficient flexibility for you to pursue your own particular interests.
