Overview

At the Criminology (Hons) programme offered by University of Nottingham, you will learn how ‘crime’ is defined and understand how we manage offenders and victims. They will consider what justice looks like, how the media and culture shape public opinion and policy, and examine how society has tried to make sense of crime through history.

You can tailor your study with optional modules. You could investigate topics including youth justice, policing, gender-based violence, climate justice, prisons and punishment, or the fast-changing world of cyber-crime.

Using real-world case studies and examining current issues in societies, you’ll build the skills to understand how everyday behaviour and social institutions help manage and control crime.
