Program Overview

Studying a combined honours in Criminology and History at Keele enables you to both build your awareness of a range of criminological perspectives and explore why it is important to think about crime, its impacts and how it could be prevented in future. You will immerse yourself into the study of the past and explore the social, economic, political, and cultural forces that have shaped global history and discover how millennia of change have impacted the world that we live in today.

Within Criminology you will explore what crime is and how it is defined by the law and public opinion. You will build your awareness of a range of different perspectives and explore why it is important to think about crime, its impacts and how it could be prevented in future.

You will research the theoretical explanations to understand the motivations for criminal behaviour and the subsequent investigation process. You will consider the many factors that may influence a person to commit crime such as socio demographic issues, peer groups and culture. You will evaluate how these influencing factors may differ internationally, for example, what is perceived to be a crime and the way it is controlled and dealt with by authorities across the globe. You will explore the different methods used to collect and analyse criminological data and develop a robust understanding of the consequences associated with crime. You will also be encouraged to question whether outcomes are reasonable and effective to control crime within society.

Within the History element of the degree, you will develop your knowledge, critical thinking, and analytical skills by studying a diverse range of historical topics. This will enable you to trace the course of change in key areas of human history and appreciate the impact of events, forces, and processes on individual societies and the world as a whole. You will learn how to research diverse topics effectively, how to critically interrogate evidence and reflect on pivotal moments in history through a range of modules. This will involve working both independently and as part of a team in order to broaden your knowledge and develop transferable skills that will allow you to interpret information from various sources critically and effectively.
