About this course

Don't just watch the headlines - understand the system behind them. Most people see crime through true crime podcasts and news reports. At Oxford Brookes, you'll go deeper: examining why certain groups end up in the justice system more than others, and building the skills to create a fairer society.

Through perspectives from sociology, law and psychology, we examine the structural inequalities behind crime. You’ll tackle society's biggest questions from a social justice perspective, exploring how race, gender and class shape our justice system. You'll create podcasts, lead debates, and present research - building professional skills and a portfolio that gets you noticed.

Worth it overall
It's been a mixed experience, but mostly positive. The best part: the opportunity to do independent research in the final year is a highlight. If I'm honest, admin can be slow to respond, especially at start of term. On the city β€” local cos…
