Course summary


Please note that Combined Honours degrees at Liverpool Hope University are split 50/50. This means both subjects will be studied equally.


Computer Science

Computer Science is all about new ideas, new opportunities and fresh thinking. There is no other discipline that can be applied to so many different areas and have such a profound impact on all aspects of society. The dynamism of this exciting subject is reflected in this degree through thestudy of a range of topics including networks, robotics, internet, and mobile and cutting-edge technologies such as Virtual Reality.Study this degree with us and you will acquire practical skills that are highly sought after by industry, such as programming in C, C++, Java, Lua, Python, C# and low level languages (such as x86 and ARM). Computer Science has a wide-reaching social impact, posing many ethical questions, and these issues are examined at various points during the full degree.


Criminology

Crime and how to deal with it are amongst the most significant and contentious issues of our time, so it is vital that we understand this subject. Criminology is the study of crime, its causes and effects, and what we do about it. At Liverpool Hope University, you will


study how crime is defined and who defines it

, why some people commit offences, and what happens to those who commit crimes if they are caught.Criminology also studies the impact of the various agencies and organisations that deal with crime:


the police, the courts, the probation and prison services

, as well as the role of the Ministry of Justice and the Home Office. Studying Criminology enables you to focus on questions such as ‘is criminal behaviour learned or inherited?’ and ‘why are some actions defined as criminal and not others?’; ‘what is the purpose of punishment and to what extent does it deter criminal behaviour?’Criminology is a well-established degree at Liverpool Hope and is taught by staff with considerable experience at national and international level.


Several key criminological textbooks are written by members of the department

. The Criminology team is enthusiastic and dedicated and will help you to get the most out of your degree. Criminology is


heavily focused on justice

- how it is delivered, to whom, by whom and whether or not it is effective. This reflects Liverpool Hope’s commitment to social justice both nationally and internationally.
