Course Overview

At Leicester, you will develop skills in legal and academic reasoning and research and an appreciation of the social and policy issues underlying the law. You will study modules from both Leicester Law School and the School of Criminology, which examine the nature, extent, causes, and control of criminal behaviour in both the individual and broader society. You will also explore the factors that underscore law-making, law-breaking, and law enforcement processes. Leicester is ranked #2 in the country for teaching Criminology (The Guardian University Guide 2021), and you'll benefit from our expertise at every step. You can broaden your perspective with a year of studying overseas or make a difference by giving free legal advice to real clients through our Pro-Bono group. We will also encourage you to build practical skills through our award-winning extracurricular activities.
