About this course

Professional Policing has evolved into a graduate-level profession, and the degrees that prepare students for it are designed to develop both the practical skills and the intellectual frameworks that effective modern policing requires. Officers need to investigate complex situations, communicate with diverse communities, make sound decisions under pressure and uphold the law with integrity and accountability. A Professional Policing degree provides the theoretical grounding in criminal justice, law, ethics and social science that allows officers to understand and navigate those demands, alongside the practical training needed to begin a policing career. At the University of Salford this three-year full-time degree provides comprehensive knowledge and preparation for a career in policing, while also offering insights into the broader Criminal Justice System and the range of roles within
