The Diploma in Criminology is an important stepping-stone to achieve your career and study goals.

Not only does our Diploma in Criminology have lower entry requirements than our bachelor degrees, but it will help you to develop skills needed to succeed in more advanced tertiary study.
Our Diploma in Criminology provides domestic students with a Commonwealth supported place (CSP-funded) and will help you achieve your goals.
ACU provides smaller class sizes, tailored support as you transition to university study and a range of student services to help you succeed.
