Criminology and Sociology with Foundation Year in Criminology, Policing and Sociology

Are you interested in the relationship between societies and crime? Do you want to explore how societies and crime develop in a global context?

Develop your knowledge and understanding of two major disciplines in the field of social sciences with a Criminology and Sociology degree.

You’ll explore traditional areas such as inequality, social stratification, deviance and punishment, as well as more contemporary concerns such as terrorism, environmentalism, global politics, sexuality and media representation.

This four-year course includes an initial full-time Foundation Year and offers an alternative route into university and gaining a degree.

This route is for you if you do not have the necessary qualifications or don’t yet feel ready to begin degree-level study, or are returning to education and would like some support to get up to speed with learning in a university setting.

The Foundation Year in Criminology, Policing and Sociology will allow you to develop your academic skills and confidence as well as introduce you to key concepts, debates and skills that will support and inform your subsequent years of undergraduate study.

Following successful completion of your Foundation Year, you’ll progress onto Year 1 of our Criminology and Sociology BA Joint (Hons) degree.
