The department of Criminology offers graduate programs leading to the degrees of Master of Arts (MA) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Criminology.
Criminology is devoted to the scientific analysis of crime, justice and social control. It focuses on four broad questions: the social construction of norms and the notion of crime; the criminalization of specific behaviours, individuals and groups in our society; the analysis of the goals and functioning of the criminal justice system; and the examination of contemporary forms of intervention.
Master's Program
The master's program consists of three distinct 30 unit options:
- Option with thesis (30 units). In addition to the three mandatory courses, the acquisition of thematic theoretical and methodological competencies is achieved by means of a thesis and three elective courses.
- Option with thesis and field placement (30 units). It can be offered at the first semester to students in the thesis option if field placement places are available. No direct entry in this option. In addition to the mandatory core courses, the acquisition of thematic theoretical and methodological competencies is achieved by means of a thesis (120 pages), a field placement seminar and a field placement of 360 hours in an environment that responds to the learning interests of the student.
- Option with major research paper (24 units)– and major research paper with field placement if field placement places are available – no direct entry in this program. In addition to the two mandatory courses, the acquisition of thematic theoretical and methodological competencies is achieved by means of a major research project (50 pages) and four elective courses (or the replacement of three of these elective courses by a field placement seminar and a field placement of 360 hours in an environment that responds to the learning interests of the student).
- Option with courses (24 units) comprising two profiles: courses only or courses and field placement. In addition to the two compulsory courses, the acquisition of thematic theoretical skills is done either through 6 optional courses (courses only profile) or through 3 elective courses, field placement and field placement seminar (courses and field placement profile). The field placement is 360 hours in a field environment responding to the student’s learning interests.
These three options are intended to equip students with knowledge of the major theoretical and methodological frameworks in criminology so that they will be able to critically analyze them and apply this knowledge to describe and explain conceptual and empirical problems of crime, justice and social control, both within the framework of optional courses or of an internship seminar with an on-site internship.
The department also offers a collaborative program in Women’s Studies at the MA level. This multidisciplinary program aims to combine graduate studies in a particular discipline with the feminist approach and the problems developed in women's studies. The degree awarded is a master's degree in criminology with a "specialization in women's studies".
Finally, regarding thesis option, the department offers the possibility of acquiring a double degree in criminology (DDC) combining the first year of studies at Université catholique de Louvain (UCL) in Belgium with a second year of study at the University of Ottawa (U of O). Students graduating from the DDC will thus be awarded a diploma from both universities, a master of arts in criminology from U of O and a master's degree in criminology from UCL.
The programs are offered in English and French and are governed by the general regulations in effect for graduate studies.
For the most accurate and up to date information on application deadlines, language tests and other admission requirements, please visit the specific requirements webpage.
To be eligible for admission to the MA program:
- Students must hold an Honour's Bachelor's degree with a major in Criminology or equivalent with a minimum average of 75% (B+).
- Their previous studies must have included CRM 3334 and CRM 3335 or equivalent. If not, they will have to take them as additional courses during their first term in the MA program.
- Students who don’t hold an Honour's Bachelor’s degree with a major in Criminology or equivalent, can demonstrate relevant work experience of 2 years or more by submitting a paper of approximately 300 words detailing the relevance of this professional experience for this program. This document must be added to program application requirements.
- Only the option with Major Research Paper and the option with courses, only courses profile, are open to part-time students.
Students interested in the Thesis with field placement, the Major Research Paper with field placement or in the double degree option with field placement with the Université catholique de Louvain in Belgium must make mention of their interest in their intention letter as part of their application. Students interested in the double degree option must also send an email confirming their interest in the double degree option at the following email address: scsgrad@uOttawa.ca at the time of application.
The Qualifying Program
If the student has an Honours degree in a related field (e.g., sociology, psychology, law, social work, political science, history, philosophy) but is considered to have insufficient training in the theoretical and methodological traditions of the criminological discipline, the student may be offered a qualifying year involving up to 24 units in order to render the student eligible to pursue studies in the Master's program. To successfully complete the qualifying year, the student must pass all courses (passing grade is C+) and have an average of B+. It is necessary to submit a new application, during the qualifying year, for admission to the Master's program to be considered. The student will receive an offer of admission to the Master's program which will be conditional on the successful completion of the qualifying year.
Language Requirements
All applicants must be able to understand speak and write either English or French proficiently. Applicants whose first language is neither English nor French must provide proof of proficiency in one or the other. The list of acceptable tests is indicated in the “Admission” section of the general regulations in effect for graduate studies.
In accordance with the University of Ottawa regulation, students have a right to produce their work, their thesis, and to answer examination questions in French or in English.
Requirements for this program have been modified. Please consult the 2023-2024 calendars for the previous requirements
