MARINA IBRAHIM Bachelor of Policing ‘UWS is the most down-to-earth university in NSW. Not only does it have a number of campuses in Greater Western Sydney for convenience but it is also the simplest and most laid back to be a part of. UWS never fails to support students coming from different and/or disadvantaged backgrounds and is always willing to accommodate all types of students. The Bachelor of Policing allowed me the excitement that I enjoy but still within the politics and criminal justice field that I am extremely passionate about. It is also a well-structured course that is developed in partnership with the NSW Police Force, thus leading me to the career and future I want.’

Are you a natural leader keen to make a difference in the area of law enforcement and policing?

KELLY MOYLAN Bachelor of Policing (Honours) ‘Don’t be worried if you do not get the grades you need at high school. UWS offers a number of pathways to help you get to uni, such as the Foundation Studies program and diploma programs offered by UWSCollege. In my experience the university lecturers and tutors were welcoming and encouraging. Policing is a great degree that provides many opportunities for other forms of employment. If you don’t want to join the Police Force, you can consider employment with other services such as corrections, customs, the RMS, juvenile justice, and a wide range of other government and non-government departments.’
