Graduate Certificate in Neuroscience and Criminology

The University of New England

Criminology and neuroscience are rapidly evolving fields, with growing recognition of the role that neuroscience plays in understanding human behaviour, including criminal actions. The first course of its kind in Australia, our Graduate Certificate in Neuroscience and Criminology investigates the intricate relationships between brain functions and criminal behaviour, contributing to the emerging field of neurocriminology, a discipline with immense potential for future research and applications.

Whether you're already working in criminal justice, law enforcement or mental health and want to upskill, or you're looking to enter the field for the first time, our flexible introductory course equips you with the knowledge and tools to understand crime through a neurological lens.
