Undergraduate Programs - Criminology

Criminology involves the scientific analysis of crime, of the criminalization process and of social control. Criminology is also an applied discipline in which students learn various forms of intervention to help resolve problems and conflicts. It focuses on five broad questions: the nature and dynamics of behavior that contravenes social norms; the social construction of norms and of the notion of crime; the criminalization of specific behaviors; individuals and groups in social relations; the analysis of the goals and the workings of the criminal justice system; and the examination of contemporary forms of intervention.
