Sociology with Criminology (including a Foundation Year)

About this course

Sociology and criminology are disciplines that illuminate the structural and institutional forces shaping human behaviour, asking not just what people do but why social conditions make certain actions more likely, who gets labelled as deviant or criminal, and how institutions of justice respond. Sociology provides the conceptual tools to understand society itself, examining class, inequality, race, gender, power and culture. Criminology applies related thinking to crime, punishment and criminal justice, questioning how laws are made, what the prison system does and does not achieve, and how victimisation, policing and policy intersect with broader social inequalities. At the University of Chester this four-year, full-time programme includes a foundation year, giving you a carefully structured entry point into degree-level study before you progress to the full honours content.
