Course overview

Why study Abertay's BA (Hons) in Criminology and Sociology?This thought-provoking Criminology and Sociology degree covers everything from addiction and criminalisation to human rights and death. You'll learn how to think critically about how people engage and interact with the world around them.

  • Gender, crime and victimology.
  • Race and ethnicity.

  • Human rights and politics.

After the first two years of study, you can choose to specialise in other areas or carry on studying this pathway.

You will receive a strong grounding in theory and research methods, along with training in specialist data-analysis software. This degree equips you to succeed in developing your critical thinking skills and enhancing your employability, opening up a wide variety of career options.
