Course Overview

The LLB (Hons) Law with Criminology is a distinctive program offering you the ability to take a fully Qualifying Law Degree and combine this with Criminology. It offers an excellent way to prepare for a career in the field of criminal justice (for example, the Crown Prosecution Service, the police service, probation service, prison service, or other related fields). This course will enable you to study the essential foundations of law while exploring the impacts and explanations for crime including punishment and victimization. Taking a Huddersfield Law School degree means you can choose to take an LLB in Law, LLB in Law and Practice, LLB in Law and Criminology, and an MLaw (incorporating LLB) as an integrated Masters in Law and Practice. Whichever pathway you choose, all degree programs support you in exploring your options and the career path you wish to take and you can change your route from the LLB Law with Criminology into one of the other Law degrees right up to the end of your second year and choose the path that is best for you, for your final year.
