Sociology And Criminology | BA (hons) in Leeds Beckett University

Course Details

Develop your critical analytical and interpretive skills and forge a deeper sociological understanding of the world around you. You will learn to understand the complex social conditions that drive people to commit crime and how that expert knowledge can enhance your study of criminology. You will critically analyse how we respond to crime and challenge these perspectives in order to help shape a better society. Your modules will introduce you to modern theories of sociology and criminology, exploring issues such as youth crime, social exclusion and how the media shapes our perceptions of crime, and you will be able to choose your own line of investigation when researching and writing your dissertation.

Course Benefits

You will engage with sociology and criminology equally, and through a blend of workshops, collaborative projects and observational field trips, you will be encouraged to drive your studies in the direction of your choosing.

Our sociological projects can include creating wikis or presenting your work at a student conference, and you could even see your critical essay published in our School's highly-regarded sociology journal.

You will be perfectly placed to add impressive work experience to your CV by taking advantage of the wealth of work placement opportunities on offer in Leeds. You can also get involved with live projects, observational research trips and the ERASMUS study abroad programme to develop your employability skills and prepare you for the world of work.

Each of your modules will be taught by a staff member who is an expert in their field. You will also have the opportunity to learn from a range of practitioners who share their insights and professional experience through our guest lecture series - past speakers have included representatives from the probation and police services.
