Students interested in fields of criminal justice or law enforcement administration can gain an understanding of police operations through the study of police science. Areas of study may include the traditional topics of criminal justice and investigative techniques, or more modern focus areas may include such studies as cybercrime.

Earning a Bachelor of Science may take about four years, but the benefits of gaining improved skills can last a lifetime. Many schools also offer online or part-time schooling options, so that earning a BSc can be convenient for students regardless of their busy life.
