About the programme

You will consider your own attitudes to crime, criminals, and victims by exploring the relationship between the individual and society, the concept of deviance, and how offenders are punished.

When you choose one of our Criminology degrees, you will get the chance to apply for a semester-long placement with Humberside Police. You will work with areas like CSI, the Special Branch Ports Unit, Community Policing, Cybercrime and the custody suite. You will also visit crime scenes, observe interviews, and collect evidence. Recent students have had the opportunity to investigate policing and security issues.

The close relationships with local & national police and other criminal justice agencies has strengthened our degrees to be topical, practical, and fit for purpose, creating placements to explore criminology in real-life contexts and volunteering opportunities like the Appropriate Adult scheme.

By taking the Criminology and Sociology course at University of Hull, you will apply what you learn into practice in our purpose-built replica crime scene facility right here on campus. A recent addition to the university, it provides detailed and realistic crime scenes for you to explore. Get hands-on to collect evidence, explore criminal activity, and see the world of forensic science brought to life.
