The minor in criminology invites students to examine crime, deviance, marginality and the way society monitors these issues as well as  introducing them to the basic disciplines of criminology.

The minor offers students of legal sciences, political and social sciences, psychological and educational sciences and medical sciences an additional period of training in an field close to their own.It could be the prompt a student needs to change his/her study path and, in this case, reduces the number of mandatory lessons to take in the first year of the Masters in criminology.

The course is open to all 1st level UCL students.
