What the college says

Criminology at Level 3 is an exciting and interesting course, which gives students an opportunity to demonstrate and apply their understanding of the criminal justice system, including the police, courts, prosecution services, prisons and rehabilitation services. It allows students to consider how their learning impacts on themselves, other individuals, employers, society and the environment. Students will acquire and use a range of skills including analysing and understanding criminal themes, problem solving, applying knowledge to vocational contexts and transferable skills outside of learning environments. Criminology is an excellent subject to give breadth and balance to any combination of other A Level subjects.
