| The LLB (Hons) Criminal Justice degree is a stimulating and challenging course that focuses on criminal justice, technology and employability. This LLB Criminal Justice will combine the foundations of legal knowledge with a criminal law and criminal justice focus. It will appeal to students who have a particular interest in the criminal justice system. The course will provide an insight into the relationship between criminal law, crime and social justice; it will help students to better understand the causes, consequences, and prevention of crime from social, legal and political perspectives.
Employability is at the heart of everything we do.
