To sum up, if you are interested in crime and deilinquency and want to learn everything about them and also dedicate yourself professionally to criminal law, you shoould choose this double degree.
Simultaneously enrolling in Law and Criminology is easier at the UAB, where both degrees are offered at the same faculty and share many common spaces.
If you are looking for a degree which is not only theoretical and you want to work actively in your training thanks to seminars, workshops and a variety of activities, you will also find this option here.
If you like university life and learning about other areas of knowledge while you enjoy an international campus environment, the UAB is the place to be.

- Access to posts in the public administration, both at local level (city councils), at regional level (autonomous communities), at national level (in justice administration departments), and at international level (United Nations, European Council or entities belonging to the European Union).
