Course content

The department of security and crime science is widely recognised for the impact that its research has had on real-world crime problems. Consequently we have long established links with police forces, policy makers, academic research centres of excellence and security organisations from both the UK and further afield.

The department of security and crime sciences is organised into five centres of excellence:

• Geographical Analysis
• The Designing Out Crime Group
• The Crime Policy and Evaluation Group
• Terrorism and Organised Crime
• Forensic Science

Staff and students work within and across these groups and across UCL and the wider research community, including active international collaborations.
