Course summary

Law with Criminology combines the study of legal principles and practices with an exploration of criminological theories and the criminal justice system. It provides the standard LL.B (Hons) Law degree that meets the requirements set by our regulators, the Bar Standards Board and the Solicitors Regulatory Authority, while also exploring the social construction of crime and the law and the application of key criminological theories.

You’ll cover all the core Foundation of Legal Knowledge Modules while also being able to choose the module option choices needed to provide you with the best employability prospects upon graduation. Law modules provide you with a deep understanding of foundational and advanced legal principles, the structure and function of legal institutions, and the skills to interpret and apply the law in various contexts. Criminology content broadens your knowledge, helping you to understand and apply key criminological theories and to situate the law within the criminal justice system and society more generally.

The course blends the rigorous analysis of law with an explanation of the causes, consequences and social responses to crime, offering a comprehensive and interdisciplinary experience.
