Course summary

These are the type of questions which impacts today's society, and the questions you will explore.You’ll examine the causes and consequences of crime, how crime is measured and defined, and how criminals are managed and controlled.We give you an in-depth view of the challenges and dilemmas facing criminal justice professionals today - in the police, courts, prison and probation services, youth offending teams and victim support groups.We have strong links with practice including the HM Prison Service, Youth Justice Board and local Police Constabularies.All stage two students have the opportunity to visit the USA to see how the US criminal justice system operates - all flights and accommodation are included in course fee's.One of the advantages of the BSc (Hons) Criminology is the huge career scope it delivers. We’re aware of the rapid pace of change in the dynamic criminology sector and are committed to helping you develop a valuable set of skills which are attractive to a wide range of employers nationally and internationally.Our graduates have gone on to diverse roles in the police, Crown Prosecution Service, courts, probation and prison services, youth offending teams and other law enforcement agencies. Some have also progressed to rewarding careers in the voluntary sector, working with offenders or victims.Because this degree also equips you with broader skills – from research and analysis to entrepreneurial thinking – you will have the versatility to pursue other career paths in areas such as social research, public sector management or third sector roles such as victim services. Some graduates use their qualification as a springboard into teaching or academic research too.
