    Information:

    If the human mind and behaviour fascinate you, this course will answer any burning questions you may have about what compels certain individuals to commit crime and how society determines what exactly makes a crime. Though psychology and criminology are similar, there are also many differences. Psychology is the study of human behaviour whereas criminology focuses on crimes. This course will see you studying multiple different areas including the justice system, political policy, law, and more. This programme will allow you to delve deeper into the topics by giving you great insight into developmental, cognitive, biological and social psychology. You will also learn about the biggest case studies within this area.

    You’ll get a historical recap by studying crime in society all the way back to the 1700’s and you’ll be asked to consider different models of justice. By understanding how the criminal justice system (CJS) works in England and Wales, you’ll be gaining deep knowledge on the law of the land. You will also analyse these legal processes including the discrimination that can exist in the CJS.

    Towards the end of your degree you will conduct an independent piece of research into an area of your interest within criminology and psychology. You will have the support and guidance of an expert tutor who works in the field you select for this task.

    Throughout this course you will be asked to consider the best methodology as well as ethics in all work that you do yourself or when researching the work of others.

    Who is this programme for?
    This programme is for anyone looking to understand how the criminal justice system (CJS) works in England and Wales and gain deep knowledge on the law of the land.
