Course Overview
This degree brings together Law and Criminology, giving you the opportunity to combine an interest in criminality and criminal policy with in-depth coverage of the law of England and Wales.
The programme is designed to cover foundational subjects in each discipline in the first and second year, allowing you a wide choice of optional study in the final year.
You will gain a comprehensive grounding in the core areas covered by a law degree. Alongside this, you will study core concepts in the field of criminology, the most important theories of crime and deviance and their relevance to contemporary criminal justice policy, research and practice.
Through your undergraduate Law with Criminology degree you will develop excellent research and analytical skills and learn to present your ideas effectively both verbally and in writing.
All of our undergraduate Law programmes contain the foundations of legal knowledge needed to enter the legal profession. Our programmes provide a strong foundation for students who may wish to take the Solicitors Qualifying Examinations (SQE) in the future, and satisfy the academic stage of training required by the Bar Standards Board for those wishing to become barristers.
