I am applying for a course within criminal investigation because of the area that I grew up in, as there has always been a large police influence and this influence has given me the passion to pursue a career that involves police work and also because I feel that I would benefit and succeed in this area. For a long time I have been looking to go to university, I wasn’t sure about the course I wanted to do until I started researching it in to great depth, as soon as I seen the opportunities that this course gave me I knew that my academic career needed to involve this course.

Some of the skills I have practiced during my A level courses have helped me enhance such skills as essay writing, which would help when writing up reports. During my college life I have enjoyed many modules for example, during my Law AS studies we looked into police studies/powers I was very much enthusiastic about this unit as I enjoy nothing more than looking in detail and figuring out how certain things work and how they fall into place this unit gave me a far greater understanding of how the police work. Also in my AS year of college I studied Sociology, this again encouraged my interest and decision in wanting to go into the field of criminal investigation and policing studies.
