Course content

One of only a few courses that focuses on comparative and international perspectives to explore the key issues in criminology and criminal justice globally today.

Course description

The International Criminology MA will allow you to explore key challenges in criminology and criminal justice internationally. It's designed for those who have studied criminology previously, those who come from Law or other Social Science and Humanities perspectives, and criminal justice practitioners.

Our research-led teaching draws from the research expertise of the many expert and internationally known criminology and criminal justice staff at the University of Sheffield.

This course is one of the very few that uses comparative and international perspectives to explore the key issues in criminology today.
