Our BSc (Hons) Criminology offers a dynamic exploration of crime, justice and society. You examine why individuals offend, how crime is controlled and how criminological theories apply to real-world contexts. The course also explores cyber crime and cyber security, giving you tools and strategies you can use to defend yourself against cyber threats and keep information secure. After studying these core topics, you can then tailor your learning through optional units aligned with your interests and career goals. These include areas such as probation and offender rehabilitation; adolescent mental health; childhood and social justice; and serious and organised crime (which covers gangs and terrorism). In your second year, you also undertake a work-focused learning and placement experience.
