Nottingham Trent UniversityCourse Overview
Offered by Nottingham Trent University, the BA (Hons) Professional Policing provides a comprehensive undergraduate education in law.

In an ever-changing world, they're a key partner in the communities they serve, and they all play a pivotal role – from police constable to chief constable. Sometimes policing can be the blues-and-twos and chasing criminals, and sometimes it can be methodical detective work, investigation, and building a solid case.
