Criminology and Psychology (Q98) BA (Hons) BA (Hons) BA (Hons)

Criminology and psychology help make sense of crime, criminalisation, criminals and victims. Studying this qualification provides you with a critical understanding of both subjects. Youll be able to question and develop your own beliefs and understandings about crime and harm. Youll consider criminal acts and human motivations, and then look beyond them to examine the social conditions in which crime occurs. Youll relate this to the exercise of power in response to crimes, the nature of conflicts when people interact (individually, in groups or as nations) and how and why societies determine what they will and won’t tolerate. <br/><br/>**Key features of the course**<br/><br/><br/>- Helps you understand how criminology makes sense of crime, harm, conflict, victimisation, criminal justice and criminalisation.<br/><br/><br/>- Shows how psychology explains human interaction and conflict and how this helps interpret crime, criminalisation and victimisation.<br/><br/><br/>- Builds advanced critical, analytical and communication skills, and takes an original approach to teaching criminology and psychology.<br/><br/><br/>- Enhances your employability in vocational areas, such as the criminal justice system and various social services. <br/>
