Here at UCO we give you the tools to understand what constitutes crime and offer ways of addressing crime in our society.<br/><br/>Studying the FdA in criminology and criminal justice is a great way to start a journey towards employment in the criminal justice system, social work or relevant charitable organisations. It will enable you to develop your critical, analytical and interpretive skills in order to forge a deeper criminological understanding of the world around you. This course can be followed by the all-new FdA to new modules designed around more contemporary criminological concepts including Comparative Criminology and Zemiology, as well as undertaking and developing a dissertation project of your choosing.<br/><br/>Studying this course, you will gain knowledge and understanding of a complex range of sociological, psychological and biological perspectives which influence people to commit crime. Critically analyse and challenge these perspectives in order to better understand the influences and harms within society.
