Criminology is a dynamic field that combines insights from sociology, psychology, and law to examine crime's root causes, societal interpretations, and responses. TU Dublin's MA in Criminology equips students with robust theoretical knowledge about modern criminological challenges while offering comprehensive research methodology training.
This program enables criminal justice professionals and related field workers to critically analyze their roles through an academic lens. Additionally, it prepares graduates with essential research techniques, theoretical frameworks, and current discussions, paving the way for careers in research, policy development, academia, or doctoral studies.
Students must normally hold a second class honours degree, lower division (2.2) or higher in the area of social science, law, sociology, psychology or cognate discipline. Please be sure to include transcripts of your final degree award at time of application. If this is not readily available please include transcripts of your academic career to date.
Applicants who do not meet the minimum academic requirements but who have significant relevant professional or vocational experience will also be considered. In addition to the online application form, this latter category of applicants should include two written references with their application and also may be asked to present for interview.
