Criminology is the study of the social, cultural, biological, and psychological causes of crime and criminality. It seeks to investigate the impact of crimes on victims, as well as the rights and obligations of individuals, communities and societies, and the role of criminal justice institutions that regulate and prosecute criminal actions. Criminology is multidisciplinary, drawing on sociology, law, psychology, forensic science and other related disciplines to explain crime and its impact on a range of criminal justice stakeholders.At the University of Newcastle, the degree program is focused on incorporating work-integrated learning into every course, at every level, culminating with a placement with a host institution relevant to the program. This experience is critical in helping graduates transition into the workforce upon completion of their degrees, and is a central pillar to the identity of our graduates; they are work ready with a strong sense of social justice.
