School of Criminology, Sociology & Policing

Hull pioneered the study of criminology over 30 years ago. Since then, we’ve built a powerful reputation that has allowed us to develop strong links with local, regional and national criminal justice agencies.

Sociology and social sciences at Hull means examining the forces and events that are shaping the world around us. What are the causes and consequences of Brexit, for example, or the increase in terrorism attacks? Our programmes are genuinely global and contemporary in scope.
