Relevant + Innovative

In the Department of Criminology and Criminal Justice, we ask hard questions about how our society responds to crime, and how we might do so in ways that are more effective and just. We look at the origins of criminal offending and the complex workings of the criminal justice system using up-to-date empirical evidence about topics in the news every day.
