Criminal Behaviour

Current offering — AY2025/2026 Semester 2

The purpose of this course is to provide the opportunity for a guided study of theories, research, and current issues and debates pertaining to criminal behaviour. This seminar-based course aims to engage you in thoughtful examinations of selected crime-related topics from social, psychological, and biological perspectives, an approach that is introduced in the lecture-based, HP3708 (Biopsychosocial Criminology) course. This course aims to provide useful knowledge and skills to students who are interested in research on crime, and in careers related to criminal/legal policy or criminal justice as it provides a foundation for studying the criminal mind and behaviour, highlights social scientific methods for investigating crime-related issues, and involves discussion of practical applications of research to deal with crime and criminals.
