Become a social scientist by exploring how criminology and social policy combine and collide with our BSc in Criminology and Social Policy. Investigate criminological themes like criminalisation, victimisation and social responses to crime and disorder in combination with social policy – studying how societies respond to human needs across the globe and how they seek to promote wellbeing across their population. Explore a range of social science perspectives and investigate sociological and political attitudes towards crime and its control, along with debates on the goals of social policy. How do we decide what human needs are and whose responsibility is it to meet those needs?
