Summary
While many criminology courses are taught from a criminal justice angle, at Oxford Brookes you’ll study the subject from a much broader, interdisciplinary perspective. Study contemporary theories and issues in Criminology, and how to apply them to the criminal justice system and satellite organisations that support it. We teach students to be critical of preconceptions surrounding crime and crime control and empowered to engage positively with their communities and make an impact in the world.
This course focuses on contemporary issues in criminology including decolonisation, environment, gender and sexuality and online spaces. We tackle important issues facing society today through a criminological lens, and encourage students to be active and critical members of society.
With employability at the heart of the programme, it draws on well-established links with organisations including Thames Valley Police, the Probation Service, Oxford City Council, and many charities supporting young offenders to provide insight and experience across some of the applied aspects of the discipline.
