The Department provides students with research tools, a knowledge base, and critical thinking skills in a scholarly and collaborative environment. Students who enter into our thoughtfully designed program find that it offers an inclusive education that encourages discovery, and the expansion of their own creative ideas.
As a student in our Master of Arts in Criminology program, you will have the opportunity to acquire professional knowledge and skills in the multifaceted areas of crime, security, punishment, social justice, exclusion,
criminological theory, and related subjects. You have the option of enrolling in either our “course stream” or “thesis stream”.
