Program Description:

Two specialist centres of excellence have been established within the Department – the International Centre for Childhood Studies and the Centre for Criminal Justice and Criminology – to promote research activities in these areas.

Much of our research is interdisciplinary, and encompasses a wide range of research clusters.
