    Thank you very much for making this video, it helped me out a lot. I'm currently considering to study criminology but feel extremely intimidated by it. Could you please inform me on what I should expect regarding the research portion when studying this? Thank you!

      Hi! I'm so glad you found my video useful! From my experience, the research I have had to do has been very surface level, as in just researching for assignments using peer-reviewed articles and sources of the like. I have not had to conduct any of my own research studies or experiments from scratch. If you have any other questions don't hesitate to reach out!

    The two Universities in my city that offer Criminology one offers a Bachelor of Arts in Criminology while the other one offers a Bachelor of Science in Criminology. Do you think the courses would differ greatly with one being more Scientific and probably more difficult? Or does it being a BA or BSc not really mean anything significant?

    Thank you so much. I’m currently a sophomore, and I can honestly say I should’ve done wayyyyyy more research. I agree with everything you said, it is heavily theory based. It definitely is not what I expected it to be. I’m currently looking into changing my major to something completely unrelated to criminology.

    I'm honestly pretty lost in what I want to become like 0 clue but I have always had the liking for things like psychology and crime investigation so I thought why not pursue criminology if I am not passionate about anything else. i am currently in 10 CBSE and next year I may take commerce with psychology are there any specific subjects to take in high school before trying for criminology?

    • @victoriamerc1960
      @victoriamerc1960  Před 3 lety +7

      Many of the assignments that I have done during my studies are research essays. As for exams, a lot of them have to do with applying knowledge to essay questions and case studies, as well as redefining any theories we've learned in that specific course!

    What Yourself Are Saying About Learning At School, Is Pure Theoretical Information Available Ages Ago.
