Course summary
-This interdisciplinary course offers you the opportunity to develop a critical perspective on contemporary problems relating to crime, deviance and social control, while also giving you the chance to study the scientific evidence of behaviour, mental health and neuropsychological functioning. -This is combined with an emphasis on those research skills necessary to conduct and evaluate research in these areas. -This course builds on the strengths of our existing programmes in Criminology (6th in the Guardian University Guide 2024) and Psychology (top 10 in the UK for student satisfaction in the National Student Survey).
What you will studyCourse content is evenly split between criminology and psychology modules to give you a solid foundation in both disciplines. Criminology modules will focus on the study of crime, deviance and the criminal justice system, including the cause and effect of criminal actions, policing and regulation of public order, the relationship between behaviours and punishments. The psychology modules will provide psychological literacy in the core areas of psychology including developmental, cognitive, biological and social psychology, and psychopathology. You will also complete modules that support your research skills and your professional skills development and job preparation. Through combining teaching in core areas of criminology and psychology with training in professional social research, you’ll graduate with a broad range of communication, analytical and organisational skills – and the confidence to apply them in your future career. As you progress through your studies, you will be able to select from a range of optional modules to specialise and delve deeper into your areas of interest both in criminology and psychology.
