Law with Criminology

This course allows you to study law, including criminal law, while also developing your knowledge and expertise in the complementary subject of criminology. You’ll study crime in society, encompassing both explanations for and responses to criminal behaviour.

You’re taught by research-active faculty, learning about both theoretical and practical aspects of law. You’ll be part of a vibrant community with an active student law body. Through the Sussex Law Clinics, you can gain valuable work experience of the law in action before you graduate.

We also have links with leading law firms, who sponsor our student competitions in national and international mooting, criminal advocacy, client interviewing, negotiation, mediation and legal debating. Our supportive alumni are happy to provide career advice for current students.
