Explore the connections between society, crime, and justice in a degree that blends critical sociological thinking with criminological expertise. At Middlesex, you’ll study at one of the UK's leading centres for social sciences and criminology, gaining the knowledge and skills to make a real impact in fields like social research, policy, criminal justice, and advocacy.
This course is designed to give you a grounding in sociological and criminological thinking, research methods and key skills to articulate new and emerging social and criminological issues. You'll be able to demonstrate extensive knowledge of both sociology and criminology and continue to use this knowledge for creative, critical, and ethical thinking in future careers.
- Interdisciplinary expertise: Develop a strong foundation in both sociology and criminology, learning how to analyse social structures, inequalities, and criminal behaviour. You’ll focus on pressing global issues including race, class, gender, human rights, and social change.
- Focus on social justice: Engage with contemporary debates about equity, justice, sustainability, and societal transformation. Intersectionality, race, and decolonising the curriculum are central to the course, making it highly relevant for today's world.
- Research-led learning: Learn how to design and conduct social research using traditional, innovative, and digital methods. Gain hands-on experience in analysing real-world data to understand social problems and how society responds to crime. You'll develop excellent awareness of how policy is created, interpreted and implemented, and how this informs society. By graduation, you should have a robust understanding of how to gather, analyse, and present arguments based on data using various technologies.
- Tailor your degree: Choose to extend your studies with a year-long work placement or integrate work experience through volunteering and placement modules, building the practical skills employers value. You can also specialise in your second and third years and carry out an independent dissertation on a topic that aligns with your career ambitions.
- Expert teaching: Study within an interdisciplinary department led by active researchers whose work spans human rights abuses, disability, digital media, criminal justice reform, and radicalisation. Benefit from their innovative teaching styles and real-world insights.
- Career-focused development: Build professional skills in literacy, numeracy, digital technologies, communication, and critical thinking. Understand how policy is created, implemented, and challenged, preparing you for roles in research, education, public policy, NGOs, and more.
