Criminology Level 3 Extended Certificate (equivalent to 1 A Level)
Part-time, Full-time
Course Summary
Criminology studies potential explanations of criminality. Within the course, we explore how individuals, the criminal justice system of England and Wales, society and public agencies respond to crime. Whilst studying criminology, you will compare critical approaches of the criminal justice system and evaluate the effectiveness of crime control in England and Wales, through the use of theory and application of offences and punishments.
This course is available to study as an Extended Certificate (60-credit course, equivalent to 1 A Level)
You will study various high-profile case studies and real-world examples of crime which demonstrate the processes involved in investigating the crime scene through to the trial in a courtroom. You will analyse the impact of crime reporting in the media, and how this impacts the public perception of crime, whilst exploring the social construction of criminality and the theories behind it.
You will also consider how ‘the media’ portrays crime can have a significant impact on how crime levels are perceived and understood by society. Through reviewing particular campaigns, you will also understand how changes in law and government policy can occur. Using this knowledge, you will then plan your own campaign for change relating to a particular crime. The skills learnt will enable you to take this qualification into either employment, apprenticeships or onto Higher Education.
