Bachelor of Arts (Honours) - Youth Justice

专业介绍

Program Description

Youth Justice is all about working with young people who offend or are at risk of offending. This course links academic theory to contemporary practice through placements, visits and guest speakers.

Nottingham Trent University's Youth Justice degree is multidisciplinary, involving the study of social policy, sociological, psychological and criminological perspectives. Students will explore why young people offend, and the impact their families and communities have upon their personal development and criminal behaviour. Throughout the course students will consider comparative international practices of managing offending behaviours, and initiatives for reducing offending.

The aim of the course is to focus on the core skills that practitioners working within youth justice need so they can work effectively with young people, their families, and other professionals. Nottingham Trent University aims to equip students with knowledge and understanding of how to communicate effectively with others; how to accurately assess the needs and risks of young people; and how to use reflection and the skills of critical analysis to develop an understanding of the legislation, policies and frameworks within which youth justice practitioners operate.

In addition, students will explore the history of youth justice and the relationship of offending to child and adolescent development. There is also a clear practical focus upon contemporary issues facing future practitioners.
