The Graduate Journal of Criminology & Justice

Graduate Journal of Criminology & Justice logo

We are no ordinary journal! We are set to transform the landscape of academic publishing by enabling students to publish their research, share their insights, actively engage in public discourse and help shape disciplinary and social futures. 

A supportive platform

The Journal offers a strong and supportive platform which not only publishes work but actively mentors writers through the writing publication journey to builds a strong community of future criminologists, wider academics, policy makers and activists.
