Description:

The BA (Hons) Criminology and Social Policy degree aims to give students the opportunity to study the nature, causes, control, and prevention of criminal behaviour, alongside an examination of how social policy is created and how it influences the way we live.

Criminology and Social Policy are interdisciplinary fields that draw on sociology, anthropology, psychology, and the law, meaning that students have the opportunity to graduate from this program qualified for a diverse range of careers. Students may use a variety of approaches to examine welfare, poverty, social exclusion, and inequality, tackling difficult and often controversial topics, including current issues in the news.
