Master of Neuroscience and Criminology

The University of New England

In an evolving criminal justice landscape, neuroscience is increasingly recognised for its role in understanding human behaviour, including criminal actions. As the first course of its kind in Australia, UNE's Master of Neuroscience and Criminology provides a unique, multidisciplinary approach, equipping you to explore the neurobiological processes that underlie criminal behaviours-a field of study with vast potential for advancing crime prevention, policy, and rehabilitation efforts.

Whether you're safeguarding a career in criminal justice, law enforcement, mental health, or policy-making, or are a newcomer to the field, this course will immerse you in the interdisciplinary field of neurocriminology, offering insights into the neural underpinnings of criminal behaviour and its broader social implications.
