This course is ideal for School Leavers who want to pursue a career in the fascinating fields of criminology or law. The course is studied alongside two A Levels and provides a route into university or higher education. Successful completion of the first year leads to a Certificate in Criminology, while the second year leads to the Diploma. Your first year involves studying the psychology of crime, and exploring how the media choose to reflect it. The second year brings more investigative work to the course, with topics covering forensics and judiciary processes being discovered and analysed. By the end of the course, you will also have considered the effectiveness of different techniques used to combat criminal behaviours.
