The BA Business Management and Criminology at the University of Derby is an undergraduate degree that offers a broad and detailed study of how organisations operate alongside an understanding of crime and criminal behaviour.

This combined approach helps students understand how crime impacts organisations, communities, and public policy. The business side of the course covers core areas such as management principles, finance, marketing, and organisational behaviour.

In the later stages of the degree, students apply their learning through projects and applied study.
