Career paths

Further your career prospects

LJMU has an excellent employability record with 96% (HESA 2018) of our postgraduates in work or further study six months after graduation. Our applied learning techniques and strong industry connections ensure our students are fully prepared for the workplace on graduation and understand how to apply their knowledge in a real world context.

The Professional Doctorate in Policing and Criminal Justice will enable you to contribute to research in new and applied areas we shall also be engaging in an exchange of knowledge and practice.

You will benefit from formal recognition and accreditation of your professional development, and a raised profile within your profession and as a result of the outcomes of successful project work.

The activities carried out on the programme can also be expected to enhance your personal and professional capabilities for the future. It is anticipated that most if not all candidates will be currently employed within Law Enforcement or Criminal Justice Agencies and therefore candidates may be in a position to have a transformative impact on professional practice. An overarching component of this doctoral programme is the establishment of a Community of Practice across those studying on the programme and those within related programmes within the School of Justice studies.

The exchanging of ideas and knowledge will be encouraged and facilitated by both the formal requirements of the programme (e.g., within the 8400DPCJ Research Planning and 8401DPCJ Research Methodology modules in seminars) and in more informal forums (e.g., you will be encouraged to 'network' with each other outside of sessions). This process will enable networks to build and to transfer knowledge between practitioners.
