Dual Degree Program in Criminology and Social Work
Criminology needs trained professionals. You can be one of them
What is the Dual Degree?
The Dual Degree in Criminology and Social Work is the first educational proposal in Spain that combines the Bachelor's Degree in Criminology with the Bachelor's Degree in Social Work. Studying the Dual Degree in Criminology and Social Work will allow you to professionally address aspects of criminal psychology such as crime prevention, quality of life, victim care or the promotion of tolerance and diversity, going beyond the fight against crime and its legal and normative regulation.
In a society that is becoming increasingly aware of public safety, Criminology has a growing field of development in the field of social intervention.
