You will independently, critically, and systematically analyze complex topics relevant to social and behavioral science with a focus on criminology. Students from a variety of fields and cultural backgrounds make up the classroom environment, and you are encouraged to discuss subjects in both a Swedish and an international context.
The Department of Criminology specializes in the areas of risk assessment, prevention, geography and crime, juvenile offending, criminal careers; and victimology. The department also hosts guest researchers from both Swedish and international universities for our students to broaden their perspectives. Students receive supervision while writing their thesis and have the opportunity to explore research topics of their choosing. This is a chance for students to establish contact with employers and identify new research projects that meet the needs of society and the student’s future careers.
If you are new to criminology, one or all of the following books can be useful as an introduction and/or reference during the program: Criminology by Tim Newburn, Introduction to Criminology by Frank Hagan, The Oxford Handbook of Criminology by Mike Maguire, Rod Morgan, and Robert Reiner.
