By the time you graduate youll be able to contribute to the policy debate and find your way around the criminal justice world in a variety of jobs, from probation officer to journalist. Individual modules, practical and theoretical, look at topics such as why we create laws and why people break them; strategies and policies for crime prevention and punishment; the public perception of crime; and the agencies, procedural frameworks, and practices that exist throughout the criminal justice system and society at large. Well bring things to life using true case studies, guest lecturers, court visits, conferences, placements, and opportunities to shadow a crown court judge. Youll gain a comprehensive introduction to the field, as well as personal and professional skills that you can use in any career.
