What will I learn?

Criminologists take an interdisciplinary approach to understanding why people commit crime, how societies conceptualise harm, and why some harms are classed as crimes while others are not. They also investigate how societies respond to crime and whether our responses are effective and fair for offenders, victims and the general community. During your second and third years you will focus on criminology subjects relating to crime and justice with options to extend and explore issues around youth crime, environmental crime, innovative justice, crime prevention, research methods and more. You may also choose to complete your electives overseas.
