Overview

The Green Criminology and Environmental Crime programme from Liverpool Hope University aims to give students a robust grounding in the study of green criminology, nonhuman animal victimology, and environmental justice. Across two taught modules and an original research dissertation you will engage with in-depth subject teaching in this area, as well as advanced quantitative and qualitative research skills, and the ethics and practicalities of conducting research on environmental crime.

This will build towards the production of an original research dissertation that explores a contemporary issue in line with the course content. By providing you with a world-leading understanding of the core issues in this field, and the skills to produce high-quality original research, it will allow you to pursue careers in and around criminal justice and environmental policy or practice, advocacy, or to engage in advanced academic study via further postgraduate research qualifications.

Career opportunities:

Sustainability, biodiversity, and environmental and climate protection will undoubtedly be growth areas for employment over the coming years, whilst the impacts of climate change, environmental degradation and animal harm will need to be responded to across a range of traditional sectors domestically and internationally, such as policing, local and national government, victim services, and criminal justice. The course will appeal to those who wish to work in a broad range of sectors, as well as being suitable for those seeking professional development (for example, wildlife crime police officers, or those working in environmental, conservation, or maritime industries and NGOs).
