3.5-Term Foundation Certificate for Business, Law and Social Sciences - Continue to Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Criminology and Sociology

For students who've finished high school but don’t meet the entry requirements for university, a Foundation Certificate can help them gain entry to an undergraduate degree. After completing this pathway option students qualify for progression to the 1st year of an undergraduate degree at City, University of London.

A student’s course length is determined mainly by their English language level (UKVI IELTS score). Students on all course lengths take a set of common or similar modules to gain a solid base of skills for university. Students taking a course longer than 2 terms, will take additional modules designed to improve one or more of their English language level, academic skills, and basic knowledge of particular subjects.

Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Criminology and Sociology

The BSc Criminology and Sociology course will develop students' appreciation of the complex interplay between local and global forces and their relationship to social processes, with particular reference to life in the 21st century metropolis of London.

The course will enable students to develop the methodological expertise to analyse social data and the analytical capability to identify and engage with crime and social policy debates.

This innovative degree is designed and delivered by academics whose research is recognised as world-leading in the field. Research informs its content and students will develop skills to conduct their own research into crime and society, accompanied by a range of other transferable skills.

Students can further their research and data skills through a Quantitative Methods (QM) pathway for their final 2 years of study.
