1.5-Term Pathway - Foundation Certificate for Social Science and Humanities - Progress to Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Criminal Justice and Social Policy

A BA in Social Policy, Crime and Criminal Justice will give students a broad introduction to a range of social sciences as well as an understanding of the development of the criminal justice system and the welfare state.

A fundamental part of the degree is the work placement, offering students a chance to learn from professionals in a crime or criminal justice field.

This degree is ideal if students are interested in how crime is defined and how governments can deal with it, as well as how policies on crime and criminal justice relate to other areas of social policy.

Graduates are well equipped for careers in the police service, probation, the voluntary sector and agencies dealing with youth offending and other forms of crime.
