Overview

On this Applied Criminology (Criminal Investigation) course from Canterbury Christ Church University, you'll be able to explore key areas of criminology in depth while also focusing on criminal investigation and the different responses given to crimes. From crime and criminals to victims and criminal justice, you'll learn about, analyse and research these key areas from a range of perspectives.

You'll gain a strong grounding in core criminological themes, concepts, debates and perspectives through a range of modules covering topics such as crime and social control, psychology and crime, sexual and domestic abuse, transnational crime, investigative interviewing, and evidence relating to criminal investigation. You'll learn how to apply theories to a range of crime problems and understand how they relate to real life problems or scenarios. 

You will also explore the essential concepts and practices within criminal investigation processes, and you will consider aspects of police function that relate to the National Intelligence Model. This will include how the investigation of specific crimes link to the intelligence function and the use of covert strategies within criminal investigations.

You'll develop study and employability skills right through the course to ensure you reach your full academic and career potential and where possible, you'll have opportunities to participate in trips or visits to gain insight into the workings of the justice system.
