Course Overview

Youll benefit from studying two closely related disciplines; with training both in criminology and the theory and methods of applied social science. Learn how to €˜think like a criminologist and apply criminology to the context of modern life, social diversity, and inequalities in society. Criminologists are interested in how activities are defined as criminal, explanations for crime, and social reactions to crime. Youll explore fascinating questions surrounding the criminal justice system, the social contexts of crime, and the relationship between behavior and punishment. Why and how do people break the law? How can the criminal justice system define this, and how do we police, prosecute, and punish people? Our Criminology and Sociology course reflects the latest developments in social research and is taught by experts in their fields.
