Programme structure

Year 1

Your first year provides a brief introduction to all subject areas across both criminology and sociology.

With each subject area you study, you’ll develop a broader understanding of the topic. It also means going forward that you can diversify across the different areas, choosing relevant modules in your second and third years based on personal interests and skillset.

Throughout the course you’ll also explore theories and real-life case studies explaining and discussing your ideas with your fellow students.

Year 2 and 3

After your first year you’ll study a 50/50 split between Sociology and Criminology modules.
