About the programme

Though incarceration is often associated with imprisonment in jail or prison, the word has a host of contexts including historical slavery, Native American captivity, wartime camps, modern-day trafficking and even situations of domestic abuse. On this programme, you’ll explore incarceration in a range of forms in the UK, US and other situations globally.

The Incarceration Studies programme at the University of Hull combines traditional seminar-style classes with unique environments outside of the classroom, whether working with ex-prisoners locally or organising an academic conference on campus.

Future prospects

Due to the interdisciplinary nature of this degree, you’ll develop a range of knowledge and skills to help you stand out in the job market.

As well as mastering new disciplines, you’ll develop your skills in research, team-work, project management, writing and presentation skills. The development of your research and analytical skills will give you a firm grounding if you wish to progress to PhD study.
