I'm good at and love criminology, psychology, journalism and history. Is there a course/job that combines them altogether because I bet that's my dream job?

Not really. And you probably would not know whether or not you are "good at" criminology, psychology, journalism and history until you actually do the courses in university. Particularly for psychology, many individuals have misconceived perceptions about what it will be like. You might have to end up selecting one that you best enjoy, although criminology and psychology can have relevance to each other.

Course: Maybe Science/Arts or Liberal Arts/Science? Science for the psychology part (but some Unis offer it in an Arts degree). Or Media and Communications? Not too sure about the criminology part though...maybe study criminology degree and choose the rest as electives or find one that offers a criminology major? You should search up uni courses and their majors. Most of the subjects you are interested are Arts-based. You could also choose some of the subjects as your electives too.
Job: All I can think of are ones which have 'aspects' of them involved...maybe a historian who specialises in psychohistory, ana anthropologist, forensic psychologist, a writer in a history/psychology magazine idk, or an academic? But some of these are very niche/random and I don't really know much about them because I don't study these subjects in Uni. So don't take my suggestions too seriously... I could totally be wrong. x) Good luck and have fun deciding what you want to do.
