School of Law, Justice & Community Services
Prepare for a career that impacts our everyday lives: from Emergency Services and the Law to Human and Comunity Services.
Today ensuring public safety and security can involve first responder teams of police and firefighters, private security forces protecting businesses and property, people who maintain our borders or those who work with technology to prevent and solve crimes. We have an excellent reputation in Ontario for being top-of-mind for law programs, largely because of our close ties with provincial partners, the extensive training our students receive and our strong community partnerships.

Growing Demand for Computer Security and Investigations Grads
