Criminology PgCert

Using our strong links with a wide range of bodies, you’ll be offered opportunities to collaborate on projects with organisations such as Gloucestershire Constabulary, Restorative Gloucestershire, community groups – as well as business partnerships active in crime prevention and reduction initiatives, and charities providing support and training around issues such as domestic homicide, stalking and sexual violence.<br/><br/>Participate in the work of one of our specialist groups: the Homicide Research Group, the Sexual Violence Research Group, or the Prisons Research Group. For instance, students in SVRG have reviewed historical case files on sexual offences for a police force, and contributed expertise to a local authority initiative on sexual violence service provision for men and boys. Working on such ‘real-world’ challenges can open up opportunities for your dissertation topic and your chosen career.<br/><br/>This degree also offers you the opportunity to join a residential field trip to explore a specialist theme such as community policing or restorative justice – recent destinations have included Belfast, Bosnia and Toronto*.<br/><br/>**Modules**<br/>- Applied Criminology<br/><br/><br/>- Public Protection<br/><br/><br/>- Criminal Investigation<br/><br/><br/>- Cybercriminology<br/><br/><br/>- International Security<br/><br/><br/>- Evidence Based Practice<br/><br/><br/>- Work-based Research Project<br/><br/><br/>**For more information and to apply for the Criminology course, please visit the course page at www.glos.ac.uk/Postgraduate**
