BA (Hons) Sociology and Criminology with Foundation Year

Taking as groundwork the valued input from local people and institutions, the University of Wolverhampton invites students to measure their lived experience and expertise in discussion of current concerns. Community is a core focus of this course, your curriculum designed to facilitate engagement with education, volunteering, council and criminal justice practitioners alongside people facing disadvantages and discrimination, forging effective real-world experience in Sociology and Criminology. The Foundation Year will compound this approach, allowing you to explore the local area and accustom yourself to University study standards, built upon through interactions with internationally recognised School of Social, Historical and Political Studies teaching staff and a selection of relevant guest speakers. This approach, embedding graduate employability in experience gained and shared from field experts, promises to enhance your prospects in the job market with subject-specific knowledge and a wealth of transferrable skills.
