What makes people do harm to others? What is a psychopath? How do you conduct an intervention with someone convicted of a violent crime, or help someone who has been the victim of crime? This degree explores these and many other important psychological questions relating to crime and justice. You’ll examine how forensic psychologists use evidence derived from research to contribute to debates and policy on crime, policing, criminal justice and rehabilitation; and how psychology is critical to understanding education, employment, mental health, and relationships.
This degree is accredited by The British Psychological Society and excellent preparation for the further study needed to qualify to practice as a forensic psychologist, as you will not be qualified with this degree alone. For details see Careers.
