The MSc in Criminology and Criminal Justice is offered on both a full-time (one-year) and part-time (two-year) basis. The degree and expectations for both modes of study are equally rigorous. Part-time students take their classes with the full-time students, but spread over two years to accommodate work and personal circumstances. 

The MSc is comprised of compulsory courses, option subjects and a dissertation. 

Full-time students will be expected to spend around 40 hours studying each week during term, and to undertake some further study during vacations. During the first two terms you will be advised to divide your time between the core course and your other courses as follows:

  • At least ten hours per week preparation for the core course
  • At least eight hours per week preparation for each option/compulsory course
  • Four and a half to six hours per week in seminars (90 minutes for each course).

Part-time students will be expected to commit to a proportional workload. 

The part-time student has the following schedule:

Year 1:

  • Michaelmas Term: Core Course (compulsory), Research Design and Data Collection (compulsory),
  • Hilary Term: Core Course (compulsory), one Option Course
  • Trinity Term: Academic Skills course (compulsory)

Year 2:

  • Michaelmas Term: two Option Courses
  • Hilary Term: two Option Courses
  • Trinity Term: Dissertation (compulsory), Academic Skills Course (recommended).

Please see the part-time MSc webpage for further details of the part-time course.
