This two-year course provides the knowledge base for applicants wishing to pursue or advance their career in offender management, security and the criminal justice system. The programme is approved through, and forms part of, the University of Derby’s extensive and highly regarded Faculty of Law, Humanities and Social Sciences. The two-year Foundation Degree initially reviews perceptions and approaches to offender management within the wider context of society, before focussing on criminology and contemporary issues. In Year 2, topics broaden and build on the initial knowledge gained around human rights, psychology and disaster management while also strengthening learning through the application of criminal procedures. The programme is delivered by experienced Higher Education lecturers who have had careers within the Uniformed Public Services such as the Police and Army and who can relate security and offender management to a diverse range of scenarios. Although you may only be in classes for up to three days per week, there is an expectation that you will spend the equivalent of a further three days in independent study and undertake a period of mandatory work placement to support your studies. This may involve you being invited in on non-timetabled days or weekends to fulfil some elements of the course. Please note that classes will take place over traditional half-term holidays that fall within the identified semester weeks. The programme will run with a minimum of six students. In 2016-17 we enrolled eight students on this programme. This course forms part of the three-year Offender Management degree course at Derby College and is delivered at our Roundhouse Campus. This course is regulated by HEFCE and awarded by the University of Derby.
