Student profile
Thomas Spalding began his Criminology and Information Technology double degree in 2017. ‘I chose criminology because I had an interest in the field but while studying I thought I might brush up on IT because cybercrime has a lot of potential for jobs.’ Thomas also says that the double degree has exceeded his expectations from both an academic and a social perspective.
He hopes to work in fraud and cybercrime detection for a private institution before eventually moving into a role with the Australian Federal Police.
