Here's what University of Huddersfield says about its Criminology with Law course.
Are you passionate about crime prevention? Or perhaps you’re keen to learn more about different types of crime – why people commit crime, and the laws surrounding specific criminological concerns.
Our Criminology with Law BSc(Hons) will see you delve into a wealth of topics, from a critical social sciences perspective. You’ll study the foundations of criminology in partnership with our Law Department who will teach you the fundamentals of law.
Why Study Criminology with Law BSc(Hons) at University of Huddersfield? On the course, you’ll explore the law relating to criminological concerns – such subjects as medical, family, immigration, and human rights laws. You’ll also learn about crime prevention, criminal justice and punishment, mentally disordered offenders, and violent and organised crime.
In your second year, you’ll have the opportunity to gain real-world experience through a work placement; you may also have the opportunity to study abroad.
Past students have completed placements working with the police, youth offending teams, in prisons, restorative justice organisations, CCTV Units and voluntary agencies. On campus, you’ll be taught by experts from both criminology and law disciplines, who have a wide range of research and practice specialisms. You’ll also hear first-hand experiences and viewpoints from guest speakers, such as legal professionals, senior police officers, drug outreach workers and criminal justice staff.
You’ll also be able to specialise your study on key areas of interest in both Criminology and Law, including crime prevention and criminal justice to types of crime or offending, such as mentally disordered offenders. You might also focus on key explanations for crimes and criminal offending, and how crimes are defined and constructed.
Professional Bodies At Huddersfield, you’ll study the Global Professional Award alongside your degree†, allowing you to gain valuable qualities and experiences that could help you to get the career you want, no matter what your field of study is.
†full-time, undergraduate first degrees with a minimum duration of three years. This does not include postgraduate, foundation, top-up, accelerated or apprenticeship degrees.?
Why Huddersfield? Huddersfield’s vibrant and friendly campus is a great place from which to study, while the town itself offers lots to see and do, with good transport links in and around the area.
