Course Description

Psychology and Criminology Diploma Bundle


The Level 3 Criminology Diploma is an extremely insightful home study course that has been created due to the popular demand of our Level 3 Certificate. Criminology is a broad subject area that draws on the study of crime, violence, victims, terrorism, criminal statistics and the criminal justice system. The Criminology Diploma is a multi-disciplinary course that encompasses law, psychology and sociology in order to gain greater knowledge of this discipline and make informed conclusions.

Course topics covered within the Criminology Diploma include Children and Criminology, Young Offenders and the Criminal Justice System, the Anglo American Model and Labelling Theory and Critical Criminology. The Criminology Diploma is designed for study by distance learning at work or at home in your own time and at your own pace.

If you have ever wondered why people do the things they do, then the Psychology Diploma is for you! Psychology is the study of mind and behaviour and so in this course you will discover how psychologists have come a long way in understanding human behaviour and the mental processes that underlie our actions.

The Psychology Diploma has been written especially for NCC Learning by Dr Matthew Smith and Elizabeth Ottley. Matthew Smith is a former Associate Professor of Psychology at Liverpool Hope University with nearly 20 years’ experience of teaching and research in Psychology. His work in the media even included a stint as the resident psychologist/parapsychologist on the television show Most Haunted.

Please that you will need to carry out additional research in order to receive the Diploma upon completion.  This aspect has been included in order to improve the learner’s research skills.
