LLB <strong>Law</strong> and Criminology<br />

The <strong>Law</strong> and Criminology degree programme at <strong>Cardiff</strong> is<br />

designed to equip you with an understanding of core areas<br />

of law and the legal system, as well as to provide a broad<br />

introduction to Criminology. This degree programme reflects<br />

the centrality of law in its social and political context.<br />

The Criminology part of the programme is<br />

intended to complement the content of the<br />

<strong>Law</strong> programme, by developing in students<br />

a critical appreciation of the processes of<br />

Criminological research, Criminological<br />

debates and the operation of the criminal<br />

justice system.<br />
