Criminology

When it comes to studying overseas, the Monash Prato experience is truly unique.

Conveniently located just outside of Florence, and immersed in the picturesque landscape of Tuscany, the Monash Prato Centre is located in the elegant 18th Century Palazzo Vaj on Via Pugliesi, in the centre of Prato.

Against this historic background, Monash Arts (Criminology) offers a number of units carefully designed to take advantage of all that Prato has to offer. Leading academics from around the world contribute their expertise to the Prato program while students have the opportunity to tour historic sites and landmarks as they study them.

First Semester 2013

Criminology research and teaching has impacts locally, nationally and internationally. The Criminology program undertakes teaching, research and collaborative workshops with international scholars at the Monash University Prato Centre.
