About Doctor of Philosophy - Criminology

Criminology programmes are hosted within University of Essex Department of Sociology and Criminology. The school offers supervision that covers a wide range of topics and they take a global approach to the subject, with particular expertise in diverse regional settings.

Students will work with a supervisor whose role is to guide them through the different stages of their research degree. In some cases, they may have joint supervision by two members of the university's staff and where appropriate with staff from other departments.

The Criminology group is the largest in the Department, with 11 full time members of staff who have particular research strengths in:
  • crime and the media
  • drug use and markets
  • women, crime and criminal justice
  • green criminology and crimes against the environment
  • organised crime
  • prisons and rehabilitation
  • sexual labour, regulation and human rights
  • histories of crime, punishment and victimisation
  • security
  • surveillance
  • terrorism and counter-terrorism
