Course summary
Why choose Criminology with Psychology BSc at Middlesex?
Criminology degrees have risen in popularity in recent years. By studying this joint degree with us, you’ll be choosing an established programme from a department that’s been running for over 30 years. All our lecturers are actively involved in research, which informs their teaching.
This course helps you to make the connection between the wider criminal justice issues and how the individual psychology of subjects can play a part in it. While you dive deep into the criminal justice system and how and why people commit crimes, you'll also learn a variety of psychological theories including sports psychology, social psychology and more.
From our north London campus, we invite industry professionals, such as probation officers, clinicians and youth offending managers, to give guest lectures. This will provide you with first-hand perspectives of the criminal justice and mental health systems.
What you will gain
This course integrates the study of both disciplines on practical and theoretical levels so you can apply the skills and knowledge gained to the understanding of criminal behaviour.
You will gain skills to critically evaluate criminological theories and concepts, and psychological theories and concepts, integrating and creatively drawing upon both disciplines. You will learn to recognise social injustice, inequality and abuses of power, develop arguments and evidence to challenge these and undertake criminological research in the area of quantitative and/or qualitative data.
You will gain skills of literacy, numeracy, digital awareness and critical analysis, and the ability to communicate effectively with diverse audiences through a variety of media. You will learn to work effectively, independently and/or in a team, meeting competing demands and deadlines, while demonstrating autonomy, accountability, judgement and respect for diversity.
