FdA Psychology and Crime

... United Kingdom
... University of Bedfordshire

Course Overview

Taking a vocational and practical perspective, this Foundation Degree gives you a firm understanding of both general and criminal psychology, and how it can be applied to human behaviour, offending and society's response to offenders.

The course provides you with a critical overview of both the well-established and emerging theories, concepts and debates, as well as exploring research methods and findings. It then creates opportunities for you to consider how these underlying theories and concepts can be applied to real-world situations.

The overall aim is to develop a knowledge base and range of skills that will enhance your future career aspirations and opportunities.
