Modules
The degree begins with a comprehensive introduction to the scope of criminology and sociology, in particular the sociological dimensions of the study of criminal justice, crime and deviance. The core modules will focus on how classical sociological theory has understood the social world and how that relates to definitions of, and policies for crime. In the second year modules will consider sociological understandings of a globalised society and the impact this has on forms of crime and the criminal justice processes established to police these crimes. There is an increased intersection between crime and social problems: examples include Human Trafficking /Modern Slavery, Organised Crime Groups, Drugs, Housing and Anti-Social Behaviour. In year three you have more choice of options to develop your particular interests in criminology and sociology. In Criminology: New Perspectives emerging new areas like green, public or 'queer' criminologies are examined.
