Can you eliminate the impossible to find the truth, however improbable? Whether you’re pursuing a career as a consulting detective or a more conventional route into the world of criminology, Applied Criminology at Winchester equips you with the skills and knowledge to enter your chosen profession.
Explore the fascinating and complex world of crime, deviance, security and insecurity as they relate to careers in crime prevention, detection and security and research. Develop your understanding of criminological concepts and methods and how they’re used in professional contexts, with opportunities to gain direct experience through a work placement or internship. Complete advanced training in criminological research methods relevant to applied settings, in keeping with our ethos of active and engaged learning.
In core modules including Applied Criminology and Applied Criminological Research, you consider and discuss the impact of criminology on a range of professions – which can be as wide-ranging as counter-terrorism, criminal and social justice issues, and global security. Optional modules such as Cybercrime and Cybersecurity, Investigative Leadership and Management in Policing, or Organised Crime, Security and Human Rights in a Global World provide you with opportunities to develop your particular specialist interests. You complete a professionally focused extended research project on a relevant topic, which can be informed by your work placement.

The Applied Criminology MSc equips you to pursue a career in criminology-related professions, probation, policing, security, research and Academia.
