Why study criminology and law?

Studying criminology gives you a deep understanding of offending and victimisation and the realities of societies' responses to crime. This knowledge both complements and critically contextualises the study of the laws through which criminal justice is applied. You'll develop an understanding of how the law is applied, which will benefit you whether you wish to practise criminal law or work in the criminal justice system.

Why UWE Bristol?

The BA(Hons) in Criminology and Law allows you to explore modules spanning criminal justice, such as criminal law, crime patterns, policing, media, youth, drugs, terrorism, serious offending and penology. You'll gain a solid grounding in criminological research methods and practice plus you'll develop valuable legal skills such as mooting and negotiating.

Our course gives you real-world insight and you'll develop professional abilities through community engagement and work-based learning. You'll study law and criminology equally in your first year and then have the option to change to a major in law or criminology in Year two.
