Overview

Key Features

Join us in the Department of Law & Criminology in Aberystwyth and you will explore the consequences of being labelled ‘criminal’, and how society responds to criminal behaviour by detecting, punishing and rehabilitating individuals who commit offences. You will also consider the impact of crime and criminality on victims and society in general.

This four-year course is designed for prospective students who do not have a sufficient or relevant academic background. During the Foundation Year, you will learn the academic skills required to follow an undergraduate degree. From your second year onwards, you will study the same subjects as students on the M900 Criminology degree scheme.

Criminology (with integrated foundation year) program at Aberystwyth University is multidisciplinary in nature and therefore when studying Crime Causation and Crime Reduction you will draw information from a diverse range of disciplines, including Psychology, Sociology and Law. On completion of your degree, you will possess a portfolio of skills essential for pursuing a professional career in areas such as Policing, Prisons and Youth Justice.
