We've had a visit from prisoners who'd been sentenced to life and were then due to be released. This was an amazing experience. We had first hand accounts of prison life, and why individuals commit offences.

Full time degree
Combine criminology with another subject on the joint honours programme:
Study Criminology at Derby and you'll learn the practical skills you need to work in the criminal justice field.
Our lecturers and guest speakers are experienced scholars, practitioners and experts in the criminal justice system. You won't just be sitting in lectures, you'll be going on fieldtrips to courts, prisons and youth offender training centres to see for yourself what it takes to meet the day to day
challenges of a criminal justice practice.
It's a degree designed for those who really want a career in one of the criminal justice organisations, such as the police or probation services.
