Study with us and you will complete a course which, subject to validation, is licensed by the College of Policing (the Professional Body for policing in the UK) and which will bring to life the theory and reality of working as a police officer or in one of the careers which helps to keep people safe and secure.

The BSc (Hons) Professional Policing is a professional academic knowledge-based degree, based upon the national curriculum for the police constable role. It can only be offered by organisations that have been licensed by the College of Policing. One route to being a police officer is to gain this qualification before applying to join the police service. You would then need to successfully apply to join a police force as a probationary police constable. National and local entry requirements would need to be met, and achievement of the degree does not guarantee a successful application.
