The course offers a distinctive theoretical and policy aspect of the subject. On completion of the course, you'll graduate with an extensive vocationally relevant and policy-orientated knowledge of crime and responses to crime, drawing on examples from across the world. You'll also develop a critical awareness of the current philosophical, theoretical, and methodological problems, debates, and insights that shape the discipline.

The emphasis on policy is specifically designed to offer a more vocationally relevant course of Masters-level study that will be more pertinent if you are seeking a policy-orientated career in the Home Office, government office of the regions, local government, and crime and disorder reduction partnerships.

The Criminology team regularly invites renowned experts and professionals to the University to provide an insight into their specialist knowledge and experiences. Past speakers have included Superintendent Paul Giannasi, Programme Manager of the Cross-Governmental Hate Crime Strategy, and Len Jackson OBE, Interim Chair of the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
