Ringkasan program

Psychology tries to explain how the most complex natural structure in the known universe, the human brain works; the analytical study of the complexities of human behaviour in the attempt to understand why we behave the way we do: what part is played by our genes, our family environment, our social and cultural context and so on; students seek evidence-based answers to these questions; from the start of the course students are introduced to the key ideas, theories and research findings that have influenced psychology: social psychology, individual difference theory, biopsychology and so on; students learn methods of psychological research, to enable them to conduct their own investigations into human behaviour; the criminology degree examines social definitions of criminal behaviours, the consequences for people who transgress these societal boundaries and the impact of their actions upon victims and society more broadly; these often conflicting aspects are studied from within both a contemporary and an historical perspective; the course provides students with an insight into criminological and criminal justice theories, including psychological, sociological, and legal approaches to the subject; there is also training in the basic methods of criminological research which will provide you with the skills for critical evaluation of both theory and empirical studies within this field.
