The Criminology subject area is situated within the Department of Law, Criminology and policing and builds on the successful Criminology undergraduate provision. The Department is small, friendly, and focused on providing students with a personalised, transformative student experience.
This course is uniquely designed to offer students a foundation of critical criminological knowledge through which concerns relating to matters of social justice, equality and diversity are examined, promote access to social justice for all within the criminal justice system and wider society.
Students should have a minimum 2:2 undergraduate degree in either criminology, or in a relevant associated subject including but not limited to criminology, psychology, sociology, policing, law, social work.
Equivalent professional experience, reflected through relevant work experience in a criminal justice agency or third sector related role, will be considered. Consideration will also be given to mature applicants with considerable ‘life experience’ for whom study at postgraduate rather than undergraduate level, is appropriate.
