Course summary

This is a four-year programme that includes a year of foundational study at our Llandaff campus and leads directly into the degree course, which will be taught at our Cyncoed campus. Our foundation year offers the chance to strengthen your skills, knowledge and confidence, before you advance to stage one of your honours degree.Have you ever wondered what motivates people to commit crime? Have you thought about how society shapes our understanding of crime and criminals? Or thought how victims are treated within the criminal justice system? The Cardiff Met BSc (Hons) Criminology degree combines both theoretical and empirical study into a modern programme that will challenge the way you look at the study of crime. In addition to learning about the underpinning philosophies and theories that explore crime as an academic field of study, you will explore the evidence base for these theories and philosophies, and potentially contribute towards our developing understanding in a range of cutting-edge topics.Studying Criminology at Cardiff Met, you will focus on three key strands that are woven throughout the degree which include Criminology Theories, the fundamentals of the Criminal Justice System and Emerging Disciplines in contemporary Criminology.The second-year placement will provide you with an outstanding opportunity to gain invaluable work experience in appropriate and relevant industries, in addition to a range of voluntary opportunities available throughout your study. The ILM Level 5 Leadership and Management qualification that accompanies the degree will help you to stand out from the crowd when it comes to graduate outcomes, following completion.
