Bachelor of Arts (Hons) in Criminology and Criminal Justice

Program Overview

As a society, our fascination, curiosity and concern about criminal behaviour, crime and its connection to our daily lives is partly what draws so many people to study criminology. As well as examining what causes people to commit crime and how they respond to punishment and other deterrents, our Criminology and Criminal Justice degree provides practical knowledge and understanding of how the criminal justice system works.

It aims to equip you with a broad set of social research skills to understand and analyse some of society’s biggest issues. Specialist modules allow you to focus on complex areas of human behaviour such as drug abuse, interpersonal and domestic violence, and organised crime, and the social issues that influence them.

Our strong links with criminal justice agencies locally, nationally and internationally provide opportunities for direct experience. Previously, for example, students have heard from Greater Manchester and North Wales Police and volunteered at Victim Support. Your learning reflects contemporary debate around issues such as excessive police force or drug-related crime.

Your skillset will be of use to any organisation requiring investigative work and/or with a remit to control crime. You knowledge and skills upon graduation could help prevent benefit fraud, tax offences or even border agency violations, to name just a few. As a result, this degree can open a wide range of careers including the police, prison, probation, security or youth offending services, social work, child protection, local or national government, NGOs, charities and more.
