BSc (Hons) Criminology with placement year in Loughborough United Kingdom | Loughborough University

Our Bachelor of Science in Criminology program enables you to gain comprehensive knowledge about crime's scope, root causes, and the criminal justice system's approach to addressing offenses and rehabilitating offenders.
You'll examine both traditional and modern crime prevention strategies, along with how social issues like poverty, inequality, and marginalization influence criminal activity. This Criminology program integrates theoretical frameworks and analytical techniques to study crime, deviance, and social disparities, preparing students to assess law enforcement, judicial processes, and rehabilitation programs' effectiveness in mitigating crime's societal effects. The curriculum examines social justice concerns and how criminal justice policies can both safeguard vulnerable populations and potentially exacerbate their marginalization.
