My personal tutor is my first point of call and is always there when I need her. My first year was hit and miss and sometimes I felt as if I wasn't studying criminology but now I absolutely love it! Placements are a little hard to find but the careers team are super helpful :) I get on with the majority of my lecturers and they are all super helpful and deliver engaging content

Teaching quality if you like someone to stand at the front and just read off of slides you could cover in 30 minutes instead of sitting there for two hours is great. Course is barely criminology more like 4/5 modules sociology based with one criminology. read more

Psychology with Criminology, BSc Hons FullTime

Overall, really interesting concepts and topics covered across the modules. However, there is no consistency between the different lecturers and marking. There is clearly a preference for what different lecturers expect so when it comes to marking they are biased. Also, many times it just feels as if I’m paying £9k each year for lecturers to read off slides which have been around for years now. Don’t think it’s worth the money, slightly dissatisfied. read more
