Criminology

About this course

Criminology is the systematic study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the institutions and processes through which society responds to it. It draws on sociology, psychology, law, and political science to examine why crime occurs, how it is distributed across different social groups, how it is defined and measured, and whether the criminal justice system achieves the outcomes it claims. Far from being a purely vocational subject, criminology raises fundamental questions about power, inequality, justice, and the relationship between individuals and the social structures they inhabit. At Arden University, this programme is delivered by distance learning, making it accessible to students who cannot study on a traditional campus, whether because of work, caring responsibilities, location, or other commitments. The flexible delivery means you can study part-time at a pace that fits your life,
