Program Description

The bachelor in Criminology (Inequality and Social Justice) (BSc) specializes in criminological issues which intersect with social inequalities such as gender, sex, sexuality, race, and ethnicity. A strong emphasis is placed on social justice, such as persecution, exploitation, and discrimination, issues that, more often than not, escape conventional notions of criminal justice.

The bachelor in Criminology (Inequality and Social Justice) (BSc) emphasizes the development of detailed knowledge and critical awareness of theoretical and empirical relationships between power, inequalities, and social change, especially in relation to the impact of globalization, global and local issues regarding diversity, discrimination, and human rights, and theories and practices of exploitation, hatred, and persecution in relation to issues such as homophobia and sex work.
