Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Psychology with Criminology De Montfort University - Dubai Campus, UAE

This course combines psychology with criminology, exploring how the mind shapes behaviour and how psychological theories apply to criminal behaviour and societal reactions to crime.

You’ll also develop key skills in critical thinking, communication, and scientific research, including data analysis and presentation, preparing you for careers where understanding societal issues is essential.

Graduates succeed in fields such as criminal justice, education, social work, research, advertising, human resources, and healthcare.

You’ll study core areas of psychology including biological, cognitive, developmental, and social psychology, with topics such as personality, intelligence, research methods, and historical perspectives. In your second and third years, you’ll have the opportunity to tailor your learning with elective modules in psychology and criminology.
