A career in policing is very dynamic and there are
many opportunities available for entry into the field.
Charles Sturt University and New South Wales Police
have established the School of Policing Studies under a collaborative
arrangement to provide recruit and police education services. CSU and
the NSW Police Force jointly provide the formal entry level studies
undertaken to gain entry to the NSW Police Force. This formal
training is called the
Associate Degree in Policing Practice.
The School of Policing Studies is the largest School
in the Faculty of Arts, Charles Sturt University and is the largest
provider of tertiary police education in Australia . CSU is co-located
with NSW Police Force colleagues at the NSW Police Force College,
Goulburn.
Many of the staff are either former police officers or
expert practitioners in policing related disciplines such as
communications and ethics. This gives the School a strong practical
teaching focus, and a professional focus to research activities.
In addition to the Associate Degree in Policing
Practice, the School also offers
Undergraduate and Postgraduate courses in Policing and Investigations.
Short Courses in Commercial Crimes, Investigations and
Criminal Intelligence are offered through the
Centre for Investigative
Studies and Crime Reduction
Management and Leadership in Policing courses are
offered by our sister School,
The Australian
Graduate School of Policing co-located with the Australian Institute
of Police Management in Manly.
