Why study IMARC
Increasing flows of people, goods and information: one of the major challenges of the 21st century. Great migrations often come with problems of crime and injustice, like radicalisation, human trafficking and violations of human rights. For decades Europe has reacted in a defensive way. Nowadays we realize the need for new visions and joint international responses. Understanding crime and crime control, and finding a balance between demands for security and social justice will be the start of possible solutions.
As an IMARC student
You develop fresh and critical views on the essential criminological issues. IMARC brings together learning, research and practice through collaboration with partners such as governments, NGO’s, corporate actors and other universities. You are trained in a variety of research approaches and methodologies. You participate in international conferences and intercultural and interdisciplinary exchange. As a graduate you will have a lot of expertise in the field of border crossing, security and social justice.

For the first time, experts in the field of international criminology are working together in one joint international educational programme.
Your future with IMARC
