Criminology and Sociology, BSc (Hons)

Our integrated BSc Criminology and Sociology degree brings together two exciting and complementary social science disciplines. One of the distinctive features of our BSc Criminology and Sociology programme is the flexibility it offers. At Swansea University, we understand that every student has unique interests, ambitions, and career goals. That’s why we give you the freedom to design a degree structure that works for you. You can choose to immerse yourself fully in both disciplines, or focus more heavily on one area while still benefiting from the insights of the other. The structure allows you to personalise your studies to match your ambitions, if you aspire for a career in criminal justice, social research, policy development, or any field connected to social justice. You will study the development of Sociological and Criminological perspectives and learn why these matter so much in contemporary society. Alongside this, you will gain an in-depth knowledge of crucial social and crime-related matters, such as substance use, housing and poverty. Throughout your studies, you will develop a range of transferable skills which are relevant to future employment, both in social science-related professions, as well as far broader.

We require a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 overall (with a minimum of 5.5 in each component) or equivalent English language qualification. Please see the Swansea University admissions English language requirements page for a full list of accepted qualifications and tests.
