Law and Criminology (Integrated) | Bachelor's degree | Law | On Campus | 3 years | Cardiff University | United Kingdom

Whereas Law examines the system of rules used by a country or state to regulate its inhabitants, Criminology focuses on criminalisation, victimisation, and social responses to crime and disorder. This makes both topics an ideal pairing for study as part of a joint honours program. This degree program is an opportunity to study both Law and Criminology within an interdisciplinary social sciences context. You will gain a comprehensive grounding in English and Welsh Law by studying the foundation modules (which constitute the academic stage of training that is currently necessary to become a solicitor or barrister in England and Wales) but, in addition, you will examine crime, justice and control as a social scientist before applying your new research-driven skills to real world issues and debates. Criminology is the field of study which focuses on criminalisation, victimisation, and social responses to crime and disorder. We draw on a range of social science perspectives and offer you the chance to explore sociological, psychological and political approaches to crime and its control. Distinctive features School of Law and Politics Pro Bono Schemes We work in partnership with lawyers, charities and voluntary organisations to give you the opportunity to practise and extend your skills through a variety of pro bono schemes. Our students have: Helped overturn two convictions at the Court of Appeal through their work as part of the innocence project Reclaimed thousands of pounds for individuals and/or families who have paid private nursing home fees. Provided legal support for rugby clubs and players Supported vulnerable adults who have been arrested. The modules shown are an example of the typical curriculum and will be reviewed prior to the 2020/21 academic year. The final modules will be published by September.
