The programme has been designed for graduates who wish to expand their knowledge of criminology, for persons with professional responsibilities in policing, probation and prison who wish to enhance their knowledge and further their practitioner experience, and for those who wish to follow criminal justice careers. The multidisciplinary nature of the programme offers its students the opportunity to gain knowledge and understanding on a variety of themes related to disciplines directly associated with criminology, such as psychology and law. The programme’s faculty are actively involved as practitioners nationally and internationally in policy-making bodies and in the application of criminological science, hence building successfully a bridge between theory and practice. It aims to attract professionals from state institutions and transform itself into a vehicle for contributing to and impacting on society and on policymaking.
The programme provides opportunities for those who wish to work or are already working in relevant areas such as:

Course assessment usually comprises of a comprehensive final exam and continuous assessment. Continuous assessment can include amongst others, mid-terms, projects, and class participation.
Letter grades are calculated based on the weight of the final exam and the continuous assessment and the actual numerical marks obtained in these two assessment components. Based on the course grades the student’s semester grade point average (GPA) and cumulative point average (CPA) are calculated.
Students come to UNIC from around the world, blending a diverse range of academic backgrounds, experiences, interests, talents and cultural heritage.
Admission to our University is granted under different categories, depending on the student’s qualifications and educational objectives.
Our general admissions policy relies on the student’s previous academic performance, including their high school grades. The Medical School has separate admissions policies and procedures outlined on the Medical School website.
The minimum admission requirement is a recognized High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC). Students with a lower HSLC grade than 7.5/10 or 15/20 or equivalent, depending on the grading system of the country issuing the HSLC, are provided with extra academic guidance and monitoring during the first year of their studies.
