BA (Hons) History and Criminology

In this History and Criminology degree, you are encouraged to consider the ways in which histories of crime and the discipline of criminology overlap and influence each other.

Criminologists engage with some of the most pressing issues, decisions, and dilemmas facing societies today. When you study criminology, you explore the nature of crime, criminal justice, and punishment within wider social contexts and study an exciting range of topics, from the impact of computer games on crime to terrorism and illegal migration to policing and controlling society.

As a student of history, you also discover both the early modern and modern periods and explore challenging questions concerning the impact of political, social, and cultural change on individuals, social groups, and regions. This degree offers the flexibility to choose from a wide range of optional modules about subjects close to home and further afield.
