On this course, you'll undertake research into a law and criminology-related subject. With close support and mentoring from supervisors, you'll excel as an academic, and as an individual. You'll graduate with specialist expertise and qualifications, with transferable, rounded and desirable skills.

Your supervisors will help you to define your research programme, agree any associated training requirements, and provide direction while encouraging you to develop as an independent researcher.

You learn through:

• Independent research
