COURSE DESCRIPTION

Crime is a vast political and cultural topic that concerns and affects everyone. This course will introduce you to a range of perspectives on crime and its impact on society. As you develop a solid grounding in the theories that sit at the core of criminology, you will cultivate a deeper understanding of our current responses to crime with a view to helping shape more effective policies and legislation in the future. Supported throughout your studies, you will 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 in organisations tasked with reducing offending.

You will benefit from an exceptional student experience geared to your needs. You will study with a team of academics who are working at the forefront of criminological theories such as policing, prostitution studies, domestic violence, sexual offending, as well as race and crime.
