Welcome to Applied Criminology
You have chosen a subject that combines elements of psychology, law and sociology and
that complements studies in humanities. Each unit has an applied purpose which demands
that learning is related to case studies. It will certainly ‘keep you on your toes’ and make you
think in ways you couldn’t imagine, and might challenge the way you think about certain
topics such as justice, media representation and politics. You will certainly have a very
different outlook on society and the criminal justice system by the end of the course.
, Overview of the course:
This is a two-year course. UNITS 1 and 2 completed in the first year comprise an 8-hour
Controlled Assessment plus a formal examination.
This is replicated in Year 2 with UNITS 3 and 4. You must complete and pass ALL units to gain
the Diploma. The overall grades will be recorded on a scale A*-E.
Unit 1: Changing Awareness of Crime (Controlled Assessment)
Unit 2: Criminological Theories (Exam)
Unit 3: Crime Scene to Courtroom (Controlled Assessment)
Unit 4: Crime and Punishment (Exam)
Look at the specification for more detail about these topics. You can find this at:
