Overview

At Psychology and Criminology (Hons) from Edge Hill University you will develop your skills, knowledge and understanding of the major issues and perspectives within psychology as required by the British Psychological Society (BPS). The degree will also enable you to develop the criminological skills to research, analyse and critique the complexities of behaviour categorised as criminal, as well as gain a detailed understanding of the workings of the criminal justice system. A compulsory dissertation provides the opportunity to combine specific aspects of your interests across both fields of study in an independent research project, conducted with the support of your tutors.
