In the foundation year, you’ll explore key social science concepts, including inequality and justice, while building essential academic skills. You’ll be introduced to criminological theories, the criminal justice system, and the social and psychological causes of crime, with practical insights through visits like a trip to a Magistrates’ court.
In later years, you’ll examine crime prevention, punishment, and global justice systems. You’ll also explore topics such as corporate and state crime, youth justice, and equality in policing. Your final year includes an independent research project or creative criminology assignment, plus optional modules to suit your interests.
