Overview
Criminology examines crime from a social perspective, exploring the causes of crime and its impact on victims, their families, wider society and even the criminals themselves.
Our career-focused Criminology and Offending degrees immerse you in this rapidly developing field, equipping you with a critical understanding of the spectrum of crime, deviance and victimisation, as well as criminal justice.
You can specialise in Criminology, combine the study of Criminology with a related subject, or choose a dedicated degree focused on offending behaviour and the associated rehabilitation and wellbeing of offenders.
