Criminology

Ever wondered what it takes to tackle crime and make a real difference?

Criminology is the study of crime, justice and social behaviour. It’s about exploring why crimes are committed, how society responds, and what can be done to prevent them. Through studying criminology, you’ll gain insight into criminal motives, the workings of the justice system, and the wider social factors that influence behaviour.

Criminology opens the door to a range of fascinating and meaningful career paths. Skilled professionals are needed to understand, manage and reduce crime in society.

Careers can include roles in Policing, Probation and Prison Services, Youth Justice, Social Work, Forensic Investigation, Victim Support, Law, and Public Services.
