Executive Programme in Criminology, Sentencing and Justice (Cambridge University)

The Institute of Criminology at the University of Cambridge offers a two-week executive programme designed for senior legal professionals, prosecutors, and policy-makers globally to engage with cutting-edge criminological research and its implications for criminal justice. Delivered by internationally recognised senior academics from the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford, the programme combines academic rigour with applied insight, equipping participants with the knowledge and critical insight to shape criminal justice systems for the future.

The programme draws on the Institute’s world-leading research expertise and incorporates input from the Legal Service Academy of the Attorney-General’s Chambers (Singapore), ensuring strong relevance for prosecutors and senior practitioners. Through interactive, small-group seminars, participants will examine contemporary challenges including sentencing policy, criminal investigations, predictive approaches to crime, and the use of artificial intelligence in criminal justice. The programme also provides a valuable opportunity to build an international professional network with peers working at the highest levels of legal practice.

On successful completion of the programme, participants will be awarded a Certificate of Completion from the University of Cambridge.
