Subjects with substantial WIL
Subjects in the non-vocational Bachelor of Criminology draw on the WIL Curriculum Classification Framework with particular focus on foundational, embedded and applied WIL opportunities. Foundational WIL, such as authentic case studies, is used in all subjects to expose students to real world applications for their developing criminological knowledge, to make content contemporary, relevant and purposeful and to engage government and community organisations in the program (for example through the provision of case study materials). Embedded WIL is offered in selected subjects (e.g. HAS 261 and HAS 353) and offers students the opportunity to undertake simulated workplace activities such as preparing a policy brief or technical report on an issue that is authentically relevant. Applied WIL opportunities are available via elective and core subjects including CRLP 200 which connects multi-disciplinary groups of students together to work on an industry-identified problem and HAS 302 where students are members of a research team developing and implementing a (real) longitudinal community survey designed to understand social policy issues in the Illawarra.
