Combining two exciting and complementary disciplines, this fascinating degree explores social issues and problems, focusing on crime, victimisation, justice and punishment. * You will study how crime relates to key sociological issues such as inequality, marginality, identity, power and control. * Consider the individual motivations which cause criminal behaviour in order to gain an understanding of the reasons and consequences of crime. * Gain knowledge and skills that can help you pursue a career in criminal justice or related fields.
Key Course Benefits* Our course has been designed by experienced teaching staff, qualified educationalists, former criminal justice practitioners, active researchers and experts in areas such as race, gender, media, sexuality and class.* Student support is one of our top priorities and you’ll be joining a lively, welcoming and friendly community.* Optional modules in your final year allowing you to tailor your degree to suit your interests in Sociology and Criminology.* Content that challenges some of the typical preconceptions about the nature of crime and disorder (e.g. about who commits crime, the harm it entails and how it is punished). In doing so, you can develop strong analytical and critical abilities.* Visiting speakers and links with organisations and practitioners who will give you insight into the real world of practice in criminal justice, community organisations, public and charitable voluntary sector (subject to availability).
