Law and Criminology

Tackle social injustice and inequality to bring about positive societal change through legal and criminological approaches.

On this course, you'll engage with issues of social justice through a distinctive approach combining law, policy and the study of the social construction of crime. You'll work collaboratively to analyse real-world problems, as well as undertake individual legal research, all while drawing on the expertise of criminologists and world-leading legal researchers. Our graduates are skilled written and oral communicators, coordinators and team players. You'll be well-placed to contribute to society as a creative, ethical and robust problem-solver within a range of roles in the social and criminal justice system, in the wider legal profession and beyond.
