| What it is | Critical Criminology examines why crimes happen and how criminal justice systems work, focusing on how power, inequality, and social structures shape both crime and punishment. Unlike traditional criminology, which mainly studies criminal behaviour itself, this program questions whether laws and enforcement are fair and who benefits from the current system. It suits students interested in understanding crime as a social problem rather than just studying offenders. | Criminology is the study of why people commit crimes, how the criminal justice system responds, and what drives criminal behaviour. Unlike a law degree, you won't train to become a lawyer; instead, you'll examine crime through sociology, psychology, and policy perspectives. This program suits students interested in understanding crime and justice systems rather than practising law itself. | A Humanities program lets you study how humans create meaning through language, culture, history, and ideas. You choose from subjects like English, history, philosophy, drama, and various languages, building a degree around your interests rather than following a single prescribed path. It suits people who want to understand how societies work and express themselves clearly, without committing to a single specialized field from day one. |
