About this course
This criminology and criminal justice degree is designed to expand your understanding of crime, harm and justice. You will gain an insight in how behaviours are criminalised, how communities experience crime, and how the justice system responds in England and Wales. You’ll learn core criminological theory alongside the institutions and processes of the criminal justice system, then apply that knowledge through realistic scenarios.
From the start of the course, you’ll use our crime scene house and replica crown court to build confidence in investigation, evidence and decision-making.
