NEW for Academic Year 25/26This
course, validated by Sheffield Hallam University, enables you to gain a
criminological and psychological perspective on the causes and consequences of
crime, the criminal justice system, and ways of treating and managing offenders.
By studying both criminology and psychology, you’ll gain a broad,
multi-disciplinary understanding of criminological and psychological theory, and
how to apply this knowledge to real-life experiences, human behaviour and
workplaces.
You’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of the key theories, debates and perspectives relevant to the study of criminology and psychology. These involve a modern understanding of criminal justice and mental health systems and the current challenges they face – such as policing, probation prison practice, gendered violence, power and harm, trauma, and forensic psychology.
Our staff bring a wealth of knowledge and skills from professional practice across the criminal justice and psychological sectors. This results in our teaching providing a 'real-world' curriculum, emphasising key transferable skills that enhance your prospects for future graduate employment or further study opportunities.
You learn through:

It's great to read about a college and what it has to offer, but there's really no substitute for experiencing it at an open day.
We are in the process of organising our next open days, tickets will be available nearer to the date.
