This is where I tackle injustice
"Criminology and Criminal Behaviour is a very open book as I could say. The modules can vary from ‘what is crime?’ to 'forensic psychology'. I didn't know the possibilities that it was going to take me to. It's like looking at a tree with all its branches. There's so many, it's unreal."
Brad, BA (Hons) Criminology and Criminal Behaviour
This is where I'm inspired to change the world
"So, my favourite part about studying Sociology is definitely learning about myself, my identity, my background, and how it shaped me, giving me the opportunity to just develop as a person."
Karolina, BA (Hons) Sociology
