About BA (hons) Criminology in University of Lincoln
Criminologists use theory to explore some of the most contentious issues in contemporary society, working to understand the causes of crime and the way in which criminal justice agencies respond to offenders.
Criminological theory forms a key part of this course, enabling students to develop the critical tools needed to understand and explain relevant issues concerning crime, criminality, harm, criminalisation, and criminal justice in contemporary society.
Teaching is research-informed and draws upon many aspects of the social sciences. Staff specialisms include research in the areas of war crimes, the penal system, philosophy of punishment, the social exclusion of older people, policy-making and implementation, and domestic violence.
Academics regularly contribute to national policy debates and encourage students to engage with key issues in the study of crime and criminal justice. Lecturers work closely with local criminal justice agencies and professionals, representatives of which visit the University to give guest lectures and collaborate with staff and students on projects.
