Overview

This is a multidisciplinary Master’s degree that will facilitate an informed understanding of crime from different perspectives within social and psychological sciences. The course strikes a necessary balance between the ‘social’ and ‘psychological’ for an informed understanding of the ‘science of crime’. On the one hand are the predominantly individualistic perspectives of the disciplines of psychology; on the other are the social-contextual perspectives of social scientific disciplines informing criminology (e.g. sociology, political science, anthropology). In both cases, the course is underpinned by an appreciation of the multifaceted nature of the idea of justice in its different manifestations – criminal, social, political, environmental. It is not only designed to enhance students' intellectual understanding of the science of crime but seeks to equip them for professional level career paths in the state, private and ‘third’ sectors thanks to innovative modules and a dissertation that allows students to specialise in a subject of their choice under individual supervision. Students are encouraged to produce work via different forms of assessment to maximise their transferable skills and employability. These include essays, book reviews, portfolios, oral presentations, role play, simulations, and exams. The breadth of assessment methods on the course have been specifically selected to maximise students transferable skills. This combination of substantive course specific knowledge and transferable skills will notably enhance their professional level employability prospects and provide the foundation for further, higher level, graduate studies.
