Overview If you are interested in why people commit crime and what society does to reduce offending, then Criminology is the course for you. Criminology combines sociological and psychological approaches to understanding criminal behaviour.
By the end of the course you will have a thorough knowledge of how the Criminal Justice System works to prevent crimes occurring, how offenders are punished and rehabilitated back into society and the key theories and practices of Forensic Psychology. You will have the opportunity to specialise in such topics as the effects of domestic violence, ethical issues arising from historical&#;and cultural differences about the definition and management of crime as well as how to work effectively with specialist populations, such as juvenile offenders.
