Criminology MA: Field work

A major feature of this course is the extended field work component, which gives you an understanding of the operational realities of crime-related policies and practices.

The extensive network of courts, custodial institutions and community-based crime-reduction programmes in London means that Kingston is well placed to provide numerous opportunities to see the criminal justice system in operation.

You undertake your field work through a choice of modes and methods, including:

• shadowing;
• attachments;
• volunteering; and
• observational visits.
