Criminology is the study of criminal behavior, its causes and consequences, and the way in which society responds to those who have been identified as criminal or deviant. Criminology can be viewed as an integrated approach to the study of crime and it combines elements of knowledge from a variety of disciplines. Students of criminology are exposed to a wide variety of theories of criminal behavior as well as to a diverse range of analysis of the criminal justice system.
The independent major in Criminology offered within the Bachelor of Arts degree programme provides an appropriate background for entry-level positions in the field of criminal justice as well as for admission to professional and graduate programme in criminology and related fields.
