About this course

Criminology, criminal justice, and social policy is a combination that asks not only why crime occurs but how societies respond to it institutionally and through the structures of welfare, governance, and public administration. Social policy brings an additional layer to criminological study, examining how crime intersects with poverty, housing, education, health, and social inequality, and how policy decisions in those areas shape the conditions in which crime flourishes or diminishes. Together these disciplines offer a comprehensive view of crime and justice as social phenomena embedded in wider political and economic contexts. At Bangor University, set in one of the most distinctive environments of any Welsh university, this programme includes a foundation year, a placement year, a year abroad, and work placement opportunities, making it one of the most extensively structured routes
