Criminology with Social Psychology BA
How do we understand crime? How can it be prevented? Why should criminals be punished, and how should we go about it? Why are certain groups of people more likely to become offenders, and why are some more likely to be caught? Why are so many people fearful of crime, and yet simultaneously fascinated by it?
Our course provides a thorough training in the foundations of criminology, exploring the nature of crime, criminals, and criminal justice within wider social and psychological contexts. Social psychological approaches are increasingly crucial in understanding the interpersonal dynamics in crime control organisations, as well as exploring questions of criminal motivation.
You will explore topics including:
- Crime and its control
- Power
- Identity
You also have the opportunity to complete a supervised dissertation on a topic that inspires you, encouraging you to think differently and connect with live issues and debates, and preparing you for your graduate career.
Our BA Criminology is run by the Department of Sociology, which was rated top 10 in the UK for research quality (REF 2014).
