1. Introduction
1.1 Significance of this module
KRM 310 A aims to facilitate an understanding of the main theories of Criminology. It firstly deals
with the role of theory, followed by an exploration of theories which direct thinking and research
in Criminology. Critical thinking throughout the module is imperative, specifically in terms of the
application of theories in South African and other contexts in order to understand and explain
crime and criminal behaviour.
1.2 Educational approach
The Faculty of Humanities’ undergraduate and postgraduate yearbooks describe the
regulations and syllabi that apply to qualifications that are offered by the Faculty. The
Department’s policy on Education and Training is informed by these yearbooks as well as the
policies of UP relating to Teaching and Learning.
1.3 Roles and responsibilities
1.3.1 Roles and responsibilities of lecturers and students
See the Teaching and Learning guide on ClickUP.
1.3.2 Distribution and commercial use of lecture material
In line with General Rule 5 of the UP, students are not permitted to use electronic devices, such
as mobile phones, unless it is part of the class activity. Furthermore, students are not allowed to
record lectures, photograph or distribute any material originating from contact sessions. Any
notes taken during lectures may not be provided or sold to other students.
1.3.3 Instructions for using a study guide
The Teaching and Learning Guide provides information about the Department's educational
approach, assessment practices, as well as general information.
Information on the study guide includes contact information, learning activities and assessment
opportunities, module specifications and structure, as well as the study units. The different study
units are organised according to specific outcomes, assessment criteria, readings and
preparation. As an outcome-based educational system subscribes to a culture of learning,
students should take responsibility for the learning process, by for instance preparing the
readings for class discussions.
