This dynamic course is designed for those passionate about understanding the complexities of crime and harm and eager to learn how to support individuals within and outside the criminal justice system through counselling and advocacy. Our course offers an in-depth exploration of criminology, delving into the causes of crime, the impact of crime on society, and the various aspects of the criminal justice system. Alongside this, students develop a robust set of counselling skills, learning how to provide emotional support and guidance to those affected by trauma, abuse, crime, loss, and harm - whether they are victims, offenders, or members of the community more broadly. The curriculum is carefully crafted to blend theoretical knowledge with practical application. You will engage in stimulating coursework that covers topics like forensic psychology, rehabilitation, ethical issues in counselling, and effective communication techniques.

By combining criminology with counselling skills, this course opens doors to a fulfilling career where you can significantly impact individuals and communities. Join us at the University of Chester and embark on a path that blends criminological understanding with the power of counselling skills and advocacy, creating a future where you can make a real difference.
