**Our extended criminology degree starts with a foundation year to prepare you for degree-level learning. You’ll then study the same modules offered on the three-year course.**
The degree will give you an understanding of what causes crime, what its effects are, and how it can be prevented. You'll explore the latest social, cultural and political debates surrounding crime through subjects such as security and terrorism, and the criminology of war. This course is also your chance to enter the worlds of crime scene investigation, forensic psychology, and miscarriages of justice.
Our criminology graduates have taken up roles in the police, prison and security services, and Home Office.
