MSc/PgDip in Criminal Justice
Application Closing Date: mid August

Commencing September 2005

This course is offered through the Glasgow Graduate School of Law, a joint venture of the Universities of Glasgow and Strathclyde. Available for part and full-time evening study, the MSc/PgDip has been designed with a number of aims:

to introduce students to the full range of issues and approaches to the study of criminal justice

to give the student a solid grounding in theoretical issues relating to criminal justice, criminology and criminal law

to give all students a basic introduction to research methods in criminal justice and

to allow the student the greatest freedom to pursue and develop their own research interests (through project / integrated study modules and the dissertation) within the framework of a taught masters degree

The teaching team includes academic staff from the Departments of Social Policy and Social Work, Sociology and the School of Law (both institutions). This interdisciplinary focus reflects one of the key strengths of the course, and extends into the range of students we aim to attract.

As well as criminology, sociology and law graduates, last year's course included Fiscal Service staff, lawyers, prison staff and criminal justice social workers. The diverse insights, experiences and skills of this variety of criminal justice practitioners contributed to a stimulating and challenging learning environment.
