Why study law and criminology?
Studying criminology gives you a deep understanding of offending and victimisation and the realities of societies' responses to crime. This knowledge both complements and critically contextualises the study of the laws through which criminal justice is applied. You'll develop an understanding of how law is applied, which will benefit you whether you wish to practise criminal law or work in the criminal justice system.
Why UWE Bristol?
Here at UWE Bristol, we acknowledge the intrinsic link between law and criminology. In this course, you won't just learn what the law is but how and why it has come about. You'll consider law, criminal justice and society from different perspectives, and learn how concepts and institutions work and could be improved.
You'll be able to explore modules spanning criminal justice, criminal law, crime patterns, policing, media, youth justice, drugs, terrorism, serious offending and penology. You'll gain a solid grounding in criminological research methods and practice, plus you'll develop valuable legal skills such as mooting and negotiating.
Our course gives you real-world insight and you'll be able to develop professional abilities through community engagement and work-based learning. Within your first two years, you'll have bespoke law and criminology modules designed to give you the knowledge and skills required of this joint discipline. In years two and three, you'll select optional modules that allow you to specialise more in law or criminology or study both in equal measure.
