| Description | Criminology is a multidisciplinary subject comprising elements of sociology, law, social and public policy, history, psychology and philosophy. BSc Criminology at the University of Bristol is an exciting course that gives you the opportunity to study criminology within a broader framework of policy studies. The course will give you an understanding of crime and related social harms, and the opportunity to analyse public policy interventions that contribute towards a safer and harm-free society. By drawing on social harm perspectives, criminology at Bristol examines conventionally defined crimes along with other 'problem' activities or behaviours that may not be criminalised but still cause extensive harm to individuals and society. This provides you with an excellent critical and informed understanding of crime and the criminal justice system as well as wider social and economic questions.
In your first and second years you will take a range of mandatory units that provide a solid foundation in the subject, and develop your problem-solving and research skills with training provided. You will also choose from a selection of optional units. In your final year you can demonstrate what you have learned in a mandatory dissertation on a topic of your choice with the support of an academic supervisor. The final year specialist option units reflect our commitment to research-rich teaching in crime and social harm as well as our concern with wider social and policy-related issues. | | |
