Criminal Justice Field School

3 credits · Undergraduate

(3 hrs Lecture | Lab) This course deepens students understanding of the criminal justice system and its applications across Canada through experiential learning. Although all provinces and territories are under one Federal Criminal Code, systems vary greatly between southern provinces and northern territories. In this course students visit numerous agencies operating in Winnipeg and travel to a location in the North (e.g. Rankin Inlet) to visit a variety of agencies operating there. Note that the Northern location visited may vary from year-to-year. Reflections on and comparisons of these experiences will province students with deeper understandings of the Canadian Criminal Justice System. Note: Students must be able to pay for flights and room and board. Restrictions: Instructor Permission Required. Requisite Courses: CJ-1002(3), CJ-2130(3), CJ-2100(3) [prerequisite(s)]; CJ-2222L (lab) (must be taken concurrently).
