Criminology

In Criminology you will study what we know as crime, what causes it, how it is prevented, and the challenges of crime control and justice. This includes the study of policing, criminal law and processes of punishment, including diverse formal and informal practices.

Monash Criminology provides a thriving intellectual environment. It is renowned for agenda-setting work on crimes and social harms that impact large numbers of people – including those perpetrated by states and organisations – during war and conflict and in transitional societies.

Equipped with critical and innovative thinking and practical skills, you will be able to apply your criminological knowledge to work locally and internationally in limiting crime and harm, actively helping to improve communities and society.
