Why study Criminology BA at UB?
The major in Criminology focuses on the nature and causes of crime, criminal behavior and how society reacts to crime and criminals.

Consequently, the Criminology BA is ideal for students who plan to work in settings which require a strong background in crime or law, with skills associated with analyzing and interpreting data. It is also an appropriate area of concentrated study for students whose plans include graduate training in sociology, criminology, criminal justice, or law, or who are interested in pursuing advanced training in any of the wide range of crime, law, or justice professions.
