About Bachelor of Arts - Criminology (M900)
Criminologists engage with some of the most pressing issues, decisions and dilemmas facing societies today. On this course students explore the nature of crime, criminal justice and punishment within wider social contexts.
As students of criminology, they experience a lively, informal environment with many possibilities to pursue their own interests. The flexible course means that students can study an exciting range of topics, from the impact of computer games on crime, to terrorism and illegal migration, to policing and controlling society.
They are a large and friendly department, offering a range and diversity of research interests, with staff members who are committed to teaching, research and publication. They have leading international experts in the areas of:
- Organized crime, surveillance and counter-terrorism
- Environmental harm
- Visual criminology
- Social history and crime
Students will receive training in criminological methods – how to design a survey, conduct an interview, and use quantitative analysis from basic statistics to big data – in order to ask the difficult questions, and will also have the opportunity to complete a supervised dissertation on a topic that inspires them.
The BA Criminology is run by the Department of Sociology, which is rated top 10 in the UK for research quality (REF 2014).
