About Crime Science, BCrim - at Murdoch University

Learn about what can cause growing crime rates and look closely at the "who, what, when, where, why" and how offences are committed.

In Crime Science you can combine your interest in science with your fascination for criminology. You'll explore the areas of science that can lead to solving and preventing crime - and learn why more than one approach is often needed in problem-solving.

As part of your studies you'll examine how crime hotspots are identified and how patterns of crime have changed over time. You will learn how data can identify and create opportunities for early intervention strategies and approaches to policing and crime prevention. Your studies will allow you to see the value of scientific methods in the analysis of crime trends and the difficulties faced by police forces in protecting the community.
