About Criminology & Criminal Justice and Youth Justice, BSc (Hons) - at University of South Wales

This Criminology degree provides a critical introduction to two significant and challenging social issues - crime and youth justice.

The youth justice system in England and Wales is responsible for sentencing and working with young people under the age of 18 who have committed a criminal o?ence. The system also intervenes with young people whose behaviour is problematic before they enter the formal court system.

The main aim of the youth justice system is the prevention of youth crime. As well as understanding criminal behaviour in people of all ages, you will explore the main issues around youth crime and the youth justice system, as well as how society responds to young o?enders.
