About your course
BA (Hons) Criminology and International Relations at Liverpool John Moores University will encourage students to critically examine the intersections between Criminology and International Relations.
In a global age, the links between crime, harm, deviance, and global contexts remain at the forefront of public and policy debates. To understand the world we live in today and develop opinions on how to engage with this fast-paced world, the BA (Hons) Criminology and International Relations degree at Liverpool John Moores University will provide you with a thorough, critical and nuanced understanding of the fields, Criminology and International Relations.
