BA (Hons) Criminology

There's more to crime than just "guilty or innocent". What are the social and psychological factors behind it? Who decides what we outlaw? How do we offer help, and change behaviour? Develop the personal and professional skills required for careers addressing crime and society.

As part of this course, you’ll:

• Explore crime as a vast political and cultural topic that concerns and affects everyone

• Be introduced to a range of perspectives on crime and its impact on society

• Develop a solid grounding in the theories that sit at the core of criminology

• Cultivate a deeper understanding of our current responses to crime with a view to helping shape more effective policies and legislation in the future

• Develop the academic, personal and professional skills needed to forge a successful career in a variety of roles, whether you want to work with offenders, the victims of crime or organisations tasked with reducing offending
